Thickness estimation of the subcutaneous fat using coaxial probe. [PDF]
Healthc Technol Lett, 2016 In this Letter, a non‐invasive method for thickness estimation of the subcutaneous fat layer of abdominal wall is presented by using a coaxial probe. Fat layer has the highest impact on the averaged attenuation parameter of the abdominal wall due to its high thickness and low permittivity.

Open-Ended Coaxial Probe: Model Limitations [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement, 2008 We propose a procedure to determine the validity range of any empirical model of the open-ended coaxial probe transition that is used to measure the permittivity of materials. The procedure is illustrated by an application of the method to a standard coaxial cable probe, a permittivity range of interest in the food industry and, as an empirical model ...
