摘要
The measurements of the time domain reflectometry (TDR) signal propagating along a coaxial probe, filled with dry mixtures of glass beads and magnetite, are analyzed for deriving the attenuation factor alpha and the bandwidth. Samples with different percentages (5%-25%) of magnetite are considered. The alpha values are obtained by two different methods: (i) wave amplitude at the second reflection, (ii) electromagnetic parameters and widths of the passing bands. The two methods provide consistent alpha values within the experimental uncertainties. The agreement supports the possibility of measuring the attenuation factor from the second TDR reflection, for anhydrous samples similar to the investigated mixtures.
