1. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The main purpose of this project is to develop a device that can identify material properties through Microwave Resonant Sensor in terms of resonant frequency, quality factor and permittivity. this device is limited to measure thin and low-loss materials only (e.g. meat, beef, chickenetc).

2. OBJECTIVES To characterize material properties through

Microwave Resonant Sensor. To validate the simulated results through

experimental setup and evaluation in laboratory.

3. NOVELTY & INVENTIVENESS Simple and effective method for material

characterization. Provide useful information to improve the

product. Very important since it is employed in

various systems and applications.

4. PRODUCT FEATURES

Determination of the materials dielectric properties.

Microstrip Ring Resonator is one of the most techniques used for materials measurement.

Less insertion loss.

5. POTENTIAL OF COMMERCIALIZATION Agriculture Geo-science Bio-engineering Food manufacturing Pharmaceutical industry Food processing in Industries
