METHOD AND DEVICE FOR MEASURING PARAMETERS OF UNDERLYING ENVIRONMENT Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC G01V3/08 

FIELD: measuring equipment.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to measuring equipment and can be used to measure the parameters of the underlying environment in radio communication systems for selecting the location of the transceiver equipment. Essence: measurements of the parameters of the underlying medium are made using probes, placed in the underlying environment with a serial circuit connected to the probes from the reference capacitance and a contact device controlled by a digital computer. In this case, the measurement of absolute permittivity ε_a is performed in the following sequence: measure the oscillator frequency ƒ₁ with an open contact device, measure the generator frequency ƒ₂ with a closed contact device with the connection of the reference capacitance C_e, ε_a is determined by calculation according to formula ε_a = ε₀ε = C/A, where A – constructive parameter. Specific electrical conductivity σ of the underlaying environment is calculated by formula σ = ƒ₁⋅ε_a/π.

EFFECT: technical result: increase in the accuracy of measurement of electrophysical parameters and expansion of functional possibilities.
