Transmission Lines Loaded With Pairs of Stepped Impedance Resonators: Modeling and Application to Differential Permittivity Measurements [PDF]
Differential techniques are widely used in communication and sensor systems, as these techniques have been shown to improve the performance. This paper shows how differential sensing of permittivity can be conducted in a simple way. For that purpose, a microstrip line loaded with a pair of stepped-impedance resonators is used in two different resonator

Oscillators Based on Step-Impedance and Slow Wave Transmission Lines for Sensing Applications
This work investigates the capabilities of oscillators based on step-impedance and slow wave structures to sense dielectric constants. The material under test (MUT) is placed over the structure and the objective is to achieve a high sensitivity of the oscillation frequency with the advantage of low phase noise, enabled by the high quality factor of the
