Title:
DIELECTRIC CONSTANT MEASUREMENT DEVICE, DIELECTRIC CONSTANT MEASUREMENT SYSTEM, PLASMA PARAMETER MEASUREMENT DEVICE, AND PLASMA PARAMETER MEASUREMENT SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/240665
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A dielectric constant measurement device (11) that is for use in a measurement system that includes a transmitter (20) that radiates electromagnetic waves from a transmission antenna (TX) toward a measurement space (SF), a reception antenna (RX) that receives, from the measurement space (SF), scattered waves that correspond to the radiated electromagnetic waves, and a receiver (30) that generates a reception signal (RS) on the basis of an output signal from the reception antenna (RX). The dielectric constant measurement device (11) comprises a scattering characteristics measurement unit (41) that calculates a scattering characteristics measurement (MS) from the reception signal (RS), a scattering characteristics estimation unit (42) that uses a mathematical model to calculate a scattering characteristics estimate (ES), and an updating unit (43) that updates a dielectric constant distribution estimate such that the magnitude of the difference between the measurement (MS) and the estimate (ES) decreases.
