Abstract

This study aims to analyze the patch antenna for moisture content measurement of made tea. The patch antenna-based system uses an air gap between the ground plane and an electrically conductive patch. The tea sample is contained in the air gap. The patch antenna design has a resonance frequency of 5 GHz. The resonance frequency and S11 parameters are measured for tea samples in the moisture range of 2–10%. The resonance frequency of the patch antenna was observed to decrease with an increase in the moisture content of tea. However, the return loss of patch antenna was observed to increase with an increase in the moisture content of made tea. Linear model parameters were calculated for the prediction of the moisture content of tea leaves.
