Abstract

This work reports on the design and measurement results of a circular waveguide sensor filled with dielectrics tuned at 5.6 GHz for online process monitoring applications of low loss liquids and mixtures of liquids with liquids or air. Connecting the sensor to a Universal Software Radio Peripheral (USRP), an online mass flow meter is realized, that can simultaneously detects the concentration and velocity for liquid/air mixtures.
