An analysis of leaf moisture for chinese mustard green and water spinach using a microwave sensor is presented in this paper. The microwave sensor is based on a Circular Split Ring Resonator (SRR) with a single-port of the input feeder. The sensor operates at resonant frequencies in the range of 3 GHz to detect different levels of moisture content of the leaves. The Circular SRR was designed in a commercialized EM simulator and fabricated using Rogers RO4350B. The permittivity of the leaf was simulated to analyze the response of resonant frequency of the Circular SRR. Then the fabricated Circular SRR was used to measure the leaf moisture of these two vegetables based on the different resonant frequencies. Results showed that frequency changes were detected for both types of vegetable leaves when the leaf's moisture decreased gradually. With this analysis, this microwave sensor can be used for post-harvest quality control in the agriculture industry.

W artykule przedstawiono analizę wilgotności liści gorczycy chińskiej i szpinaku wodnego za pomocą czujnika mikrofalowego. Czujnik mikrofalowy oparty jest na okrągłym rezonatorze z dzielonym pierścieniem (SRR) z pojedynczym portem zasilacza wejściowego. Czujnik działa na częstotliwościach rezonansowych w zakresie 3 GHz, wykrywając różne poziomy wilgotności liści. Circular SRR został zaprojektowany w skomercjalizowanym symulatorze EM i wyprodukowany przy użyciu RO4350B Rogers. Symulowano przenikalność elektryczną skrzydła w celu analizy odpowiedzi częstotliwości rezonansowej Circular SRR. Następnie wyprodukowano Circular SRR do pomiaru wilgotności liści tych dwóch warzyw w oparciu o różne częstotliwości rezonansowe. Wyniki pokazały, że zmiany częstotliwości zostały wykryte dla obu rodzajów liści warzyw, gdy wilgotność liścia stopniowo spadała. Dzięki tej analizie ten czujnik mikrofalowy może być używany do kontroli jakości po zbiorach w przemyśle rolniczym.
