Measuring Procedure
6.1 Preparation for Testing
The
actual length of the
specimen and resonator element shall be determined by a
vernier caliper or other means capable of accuracy to ± 0.03
mm or smaller.
Unless otherwise specified, specimens shall be stored before
testing at 18°C to 24°C and 50% ± 5% relative humidity. The
referee minimum storage time is 16 hours. Shorter times may
be used if they can be shown to yield equivalent test results.
If electronic equipment as listed in 4.1 is used, it shall be
turned on at least one half hour before use to allow warm-up
and stabilization. The automatic frequency counter listed in
4.1 is provided with temperature control of the clock crystal
that operates even when the power switch is off. Care should
be taken to assure that power is continuously supplied to this
unit to avoid a longer warm-up time. Other equipment using
vacuum tube devices will require a longer warm-up time, as
specified in the manufacturer’s literature.

This
method is best suited for measurements at ambient tem-
peratures in a controlled laboratory atmosphere. It may be
possible to adapt it for measurements at other temperatures.
6.1.1
The
steel clamping bars, copper clamping plates, and
the specimen assembly with copper foil are stacked with the
help of a jig (Figure 5) to assure the following:
a) One side surface or edge of each steel bar, copper plate,
specimen card, and ground plane copper foil lie in a
common plane.
b) The end surfaces of the steel bars lie in a common plane
within a 0.1 mm tolerance.
c) The ends of the copper plates extend beyond the steel
bars equally on both ends within a 0.1 mm tolerance.
d) The ends of copper plates, specimen cards, and copper
foil ground planes lie in a vertical plane within a 0.1 mm
tolerance.
e) In the case of specimen type A, the center conductor,
whose length extends enough beyond both ends of the
specimen cards to be gripped in tension and positioned,
is centered across the width of the specimen cards.
6.1.2
The
stack formed in 6.1.1 is clamped with a specified
total force. For a selected specimen length of 153 mm or less,
the force is applied through a force gage in a line centered on
the outer faces of the steel bars. For greater lengths, the force
should be distributed through force gages at two or more
positions not further than 153 mm apart along the length to
get uniformity of force per unit length along the specimen
length with minimal deflection of the steel bars. Thus, for a
304.8 mm length, apply equal forces at the 76.2 mm and
228.6 mm positions. If a 381 mm was used, apply force at the
63.5 mm, 190.5 mm, and 317.5 mm positions.
6.1.3
Remove
the alignment jig used in 6.1.1.
6.1.4
For
type A specimens, the center copper strip will still
be extending beyond the plane formed by the surfaces of the
copper plates, ground foil, and specimen end. This is clipped
off cleanly flush with that plane. One preferred method for
doing this is to use a lever-action toe nail clipper with a con-
vex shaped cutting pattern modified by grinding so that the
metal extending beyond the cutting edges is removed so that
the cutting edges are able to reach to the specimen edge for
cutting the copper strip.

An
alternate method for trimming the copper strip is to use a
sharp scalpel. However, this can smear the copper across
that the specimen end surface, especially with thin speci-
mens, and may introduce end fringing errors on short L val-
ues.
6.1.5
Fasten
the probe assemblies to the clamped stack at
both ends so that the coaxial cable probe end is centered on
the stripline resonator center line. Adjust the assembly so the
contact areas on the soldered copper fitting make firm electri-
cal contact by the wires to both top and bottom copper
plates. Figure 9 shows by vertical and horizontal sectional
views through the stripline resonator centerline this relation-
ship among:
• the copper ground plates (see 5.1.2).
• the specimen with conductors (see 3.0).
• the coaxial cable with extended center conductor end (see
5.2.1).
• the copper fitting (see 5.2.2) soldered to the coaxial cable.
• the wire connection (see 5.2.3).
For the purpose of this method horizontal orientation is paral-
lel to the plane of the specimen surface in the fixture. See
three requirements under 5.2.4.
6.1.6
Adjust
the position of the coaxial cable probe ends so
the air gaps they form with the stripline resonator element are
equal. This may be done with the help of a network analyzer
set for lowest frequency by adjusting the gaps smaller until
each causes a sudden shift in reflected or transmitted power,
then adjusting them back to a small gap value, equal on both
ends.
6.1.7
With
the probe’s longitudinal position set to a small air
gap such as 0.05 mm, use an appropriate means with the
electronic instrumentation to identify the approximate location
of the lowest resonant frequency (the fundamental where the
resonator length is half the wavelength in the material being
tested) and a series of resonances (harmonics) up to the high-
est frequency of interest. Ideally harmonic resonances occur
at each integer multiple of the fundamental resonance. The
integer multiples are the values of n in formula 1 of section
7.1. Select which of these resonances will be measured as
discussed in section 6.3, 6.4, or 6.5.
6.2
Adjustment of Air Gap for Each Resonance
Before
the
measurement at each resonance, adjust the air gaps at
each probe an equal amount to get the dB insertion loss at
the maximum transmission to a recommended value between
49.5 and 51.5 dB. As resonant frequency is increased from
resonance to resonance for a given specimen, the gap
required for a nominal 50 dB insertion loss at resonance tends
to increase. A high value dB minimizes the correction for
unloaded Q and makes this correction less sensitive to poor
data on the baseline dB of the instrumentation. Too high a dB
value will put the measurements down in the noise region of
the instrumentation, making results less certain and less
reproducible.
6.3
Manual Measurement of the Specimen
The
follow-
ing procedure is most applicable where only equipment as
described in 4.1 is available. The equipment of 4.2 could also
be operated manually.
6.3.1
The
resonant frequency shall be found by scanning
frequency over the expected transmission range of the test
resonator. The frequency shall be precisely adjusted to get a
maximum reading of power in dB.
6.3.2
Determine
half power points by adjusting frequency to
give three dB readings both above and below the maximum
transmission frequency. Measure each frequency with the fre-
quency meter and record the results:
•f1-3dBdown, below the maximum transmission fre-
quency.
•f2-3dBdown, above the maximum transmission fre-
quency.
6.4
Automated Measurement of the Specimen
For
an
automated system to be used in performing the measure-
ment, computer software is needed that will collect paired
values of frequency and transmitted power. From this data,
the frequency for maximum power transmission and the fre-
quencies of the half power points are determined. The com-
puter program may optionally include computation of permit-
tivity and loss tangent as described in section 7.0. Results and
collected data may be displayed on the screen, stored in a
disk file, sent to a printer, or any combination of these.
In one possible mode of operation, with the equipment
described in 4.2, the sequence of steps described in 6.4.1
through 6.4.4 is performed as many times as necessary to get
enough data to complete the test procedure. The computer is
designated as the controller on the GPIB.
