Notes:
An analysis is presented to calculate scalar permittivity and tensor permeability for ferrite materials from waveguide transmission cavity data. A correct measurement of the permittivity of ferrites and other high dielectric constant materials, requires an extension of current techniques to a second-order perturbational analysis. This second-order correction offsets an apparent frequency dependent dielectric behavior measured during a multimode cavity measurement. The analysis implies that dimensions of ferrite samples to be used in various waveguides (X-Ka bands) must be reduced to a near 0.015-in. cross-sections to eliminate a coupling of permittivity and permeability measurements.
