Abstract

The work aims to determine the number of foam layers and profile of their dielectric parameters for calculating the coefficients of reflection of foam structures. A foam structure profile depending on its height, quantity of layers and their thickness is defined by measurement of electric characteristics of specimens of foam layers, for example electric resistance (conductivity). Experimental measurements and their results are presented.
