Open-ended coaxial probe is used to measure complex permittivities of materials in a wide bandwidth. Complex permittivity measured by a conventional coaxial probe suffers from severe fluctuation due to instrumental uncertainty when the difference between reflection coeffcients of reference and measuring materials is small. In this paper, open-ended coaxial probe with protruding inner conductor is suggested to increase the difference between reflection coefficients of reference and measuring materials. Its validity is assured by FDTD simulation and actual measurement.

In order to investigate spray characteristics of gas-centered swirl coaxial injectors, a phase detection optical probe is employed to obtain the spatial evolution of the drop size and velocity. From the study on the optical probe responses under various impact angles, it is demonstrated that the drop size and velocity can be measured with an uncertainty less than 15% when the probe axis remains within about ${\pm}15^{\circ}$ of the drop velocity direction. This typical uncertainty is in good agreement with a previous study. It is also shown that the drop sizes measured by the optical probe are in accord with those evaluated by image processing techniques. Finally, the experiments with the optical probe are performed in dense sprays, as it were, in the near field of gas-centered swirl coaxial injectors. Some experimental results are presented and discussed to be of help to understanding of spray characteristics of the injectors.

High speed probe for measurement of sin91e flux quantum circuits is comprised of coaxial cables and microstrip lines in order to carry high speed signals without loss. For the impedance matching between coaxial cable and microstrip line, we have determined the dimension of the microstrip line with 50${\Omega}$ impedance by simulation and then have investigated the effect of line width and cross-sectional shape of signal line, dielectric material, thickness of soldering lead at the coaxial-to-microstrip transition Point, and the an91c between dielectric material and end part of the signal line on the characteristics of signal transmission of the microstrip line. From the simulation, we have found that these all parameter's had influenced on the characteristic of signal transmission on the microstrip line and should be reflected in fabricating high speed probe, We have also determined the dimension of coplanar waveguide to fabricate testing sample for performance test of high speed probe.

In this paper, the difference between the S-parameter and the characteristic impedance according to the structural change of the fine pitch coaxial socket was analyzed. A pitch of the probe pin was applied to 0.20mm, and ground pins of different conditions were placed on each of the five signal pins. Insertion loss and reflection loss were analyzed for the coaxial socket of normal structure and the two sockets of the proposed structure. In addition, the difference in characteristic impedance was analyzed using time domain reflectometry. Through the analysis, it was confirmed that the characteristic impedance was improved applying the new structures of the socket at the same pitch

To construct its complex permittivity from the reflection coefficient of a thin film such as PCB substrate measured by open-ended coaxial probe, an integral equation is formulated using modal analysis and equivalent source. The accuracy of the conversion model based on the integral equation is confirmed in both cases of converted complex permittivities calculated from numerically computed and actually measured reflection coefficients. And the maximum valid frequency of open-ended coaxial probe is limited by the size of its flange.

umerical simulations are performed to estimate how strongly the manufacturing error of an open-ended coaxial probe affects its measured complex permittivity of a contacted medium. The reflection coefficients of several dielectric materials contacted with an open-ended coaxial probe are calculated by employing the FDTD method. And then those complex permittivities are reconstructed by applying the calculated reflection coefficients into a new imaginary transmission-line model, which reveals more physically meaningful than the conventional model. It is found that the reconstructed complex permittivities suffer from significant error in spite of a slight imperfection of open-ended coaxial probe.

We analyze the characteristics of a coaxial-to-waveguide transition based on the finite difference time domain (FDTD) method with the cylindrical to rectangular cell interpolation scheme. The scheme presented in this paper is well suited for the analysis of a microwave device with a probe near waveguide discontinuity because perfect TEM mode can be generated inside the coaxial cable by using the cylindrical cell. The scattering parameters of a designed Ka-band transition are evaluated and compared with those of commercially available software, High Frequency Structure analysis Simulator (HFSS) and measured data. There exists good agreement between the measured and calculated data. In order to prove an accuracy of the interpolation scheme, a coaxial to waveguide transition with a disk-loaded probe is analyzed by the present approach and the results of this analysis are compared with measured data. Comparison shows that our results match very closely to those of measurement and other approaches. The method presented in this paper can be applied to analyze the characteristics of a probe excited cavity, coaxial waveguide T-Junctions, and so on.

Complex permittivities of material in a wide bandwidth are measured by using an open-ended coaxial probe. To obtain a confident complex permittivity profile, the accuracy of measured reflection coefficients and the stability of the conversion model should be guaranteed in advance. In this paper, the sensitivity of our conversion model is analyzed by employing two instruments with different uncertainties. And various factors effected on the accuracy of measured reflection coefficients are investigated in experiment.

A three-dimensional finite difference time domain (3-D FDTD) algorithm of calculation for the characteristics of coaxial-to-cavity filter including a discended probe and a tuning post is presented. In the arrangement the inner coaxial conductor protrudes into the cavity and operates as a probe radiator. And the height of the rectangular tuning post determines the resonant frequency. The validation of this method is confirmed by comparing the calculated values with experimental results for the designed filter.

For an efficient finite-difference time-domain(FDTD) analysis of coaxial-probe feeding structures in radio frequency(RF) and microwave bands, an interrelation between equivalent source modeling techniques is investigated. In existing literature, equivalent source models with delta-gap or magnetic-frill concepts have been developed by many researchers. It is well known that FDTD implementation and computational accuracy of these source models are slightly different. In this paper, the interrelation between FDTD equivalent source models for coaxial feeding structures under the quasi-static approximation(QSA) is presented. As a function of FDTD equivalent source models, time-domain and frequency-domain responses of a coaxial-probe fed conical monopole antenna are calculated numerically. And comparison results of computational accuracy and efficiency are provided.
