Evaluation of a prototype variable frequency mode soil moisture and EC probe for its final development
Abstract A prototype dielectric probe developed by the Daiki Rika Kogyo Co., Ltd, Japan, was evaluated by controlled laboratory experiments. The probe simultaneously measures the real and imaginary parts of the dielectric permittivity, which are comparable to the measurements obtained with a vector network analyser (VNA) at frequencies ranging from 10 to 160 MHz. The probe […]
