Abstract:
Permittivity sensors measure the electric permittivity (formerly known as the dielectric constant) of a sample between its electrodes and offer a reliable method to characterize the subsurface of planetary bodies in situ. One potential application is the identification and mapping of water ice at the poles of the Moon. In this paper, the scientific background and heritage of the permittivity sensor concept are discussed, and the implemented electronic architecture is introduced, focusing on the...     »
