Samples with different percentages (5–30%) of magnetite and different ranges of grain size are
analysed by time-domain reflectometry (TDR). The passband, the attenuation factor α and the
effective frequency are derived from the TDR measurements. The passband was obtained from the
second edge of the sample by eliminating the DC component and applying a Fourier transform to
the residual signal. The bandwidth of the resulting spectral shape decreases as the magnetite percentage
increases. The second edge was also used to evaluate the effective attenuation factor α e ,
using multiple-reflection theory, terminated at the second reflection. The attenuation values α can
be estimated independently by means of the electromagnetic parameters obtained using an LCR
meter. To compare α and α e , an effective TDR frequency ν e is introduced. The agreement between
the values obtained from TDR and LCR-meter techniques supports the reliability of the attenuation
derived from the second TDR reflection, and that computed from the effective frequency. The
shapes of the passbands and the α e and ν e values for magnetite/glass-beads mixtures, which simulate
dry soils with increasing iron oxides content, are reported and discussed.
