The real and imaginary parts of relative permittivity and permeability of mentioned sample were obtained simultaneously using the Nicholson-Ross-Weir (NRW) method based on the measurement of the reflection and transmission coefficients of the materials. In this study, the electric field distribution and attenuation at rectangular waveguide loaded sample were investigated based on the Finite Element Method (FEM). The computations of the reflection and transmission coefficients (S-parameters) were implemented using both the FEM and NRW methods. The results were compared with the measured reflection and transmission coefficients using the rectangular waveguide in conjunction with an Agilent N5230A PNA-L Vector network analyzer (VNA) at X-band frequencies (8 GHz- 12 GHz). The results of the relative error indicated that, among the two applied methods, the FEM is more accurate than the NRW method. date: 2014 publisher: Inst Materials Physics official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84892742287&partnerID=40&md5=ab948f9a5011a0a6170540cce2c08588 full_text_status: none publication: Digest Journal of Nanomaterials and Biostructures volume: 9 number: 1 pagerange: 53-60 refereed: TRUE issn: 18423582 citation: Soleimani, H. and Yahya, N. and Sabet, M. and Abbas, Z. and Soleimani, H. and Kozlowski, G. and Ghotbi, M.Y.
