Title:
DIELECTRIC SPECTROSCOPIC MEASUREMENT DEVICE AND DIELECTRIC SPECTROSCOPIC MEASUREMENT METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2022/168250
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention comprises: a signal generation unit that generates electromagnetic waves; a signal splitting unit that splits the electromagnetic waves according to transmission direction, and outputs the split electromagnetic waves to output destinations corresponding to the transmission directions; a changeover switch unit that takes in, via the signal splitting unit, the electromagnetic waves generated by the signal generation unit, outputs the taken in electromagnetic waves while switching output destination, and outputs, to the signal splitting unit, electromagnetic waves returning from the output destinations; a sensor unit that irradiates a measurement subject with electromagnetic waves outputted by the changeover switch unit, and outputs, to the changeover switch unit, measurement subject waves obtained by said irradiation; a calibration standard unit that is provided with a circuit for a calibration standard, said circuit outputting, to the changeover switch unit, reflection waves for calibration that are generated by receiving electromagnetic waves outputted by the changeover switch unit; a signal reception unit that receives the measurement subject waves and the reflection waves for calibration via the signal splitting unit; and a computation unit that takes in a measured value outputted by the signal reception unit which has received the measurement subject waves and the reflection waves for calibration, and corrects the taken in measured value for the measurement subject on the basis of a measured value corresponding to the taken in reflection waves for calibration.
