The work is devoted to the analysis of the frequency characteristics of a piecewise homogeneous coaxial Bragg microwave structure with irregularities in the inner conductor. The article presents varieties of piecewise-homogeneous Bragg coaxial microwave structures, their options for practical application and implementation, as well as the possibility of their modernization, and also considers a recurrent method for calculating a piecewise-homogeneous transmission line. The possibility of using lumped capacitances in an equivalent circuit is considered and simulation is carried out in the electrodynamic simulation program with initial parameters.Based on the results of the work done, it was concluded that the effect of lumped capacitances included in the equivalent circuit of a piecewise homogeneous coaxial Bragg microwave structure significantly improves the frequency characteristics of a single-wave calculation in comparison with full-wave simulation. When approaching conditions favorable for the propagation of the first highest mode, it is necessary to include the effects of its propagation in the calculation.

In this article, we propose the idea of ​​creating a complex sensor for measuring the dielectric parameters of liquid substances in order to distinguish samples with small changes in the parameters in low-microwave ranges. The measurements are carried out by a capacitive method. For measurement at a low frequency, a capacitor-to-code converter is used; in the microwave method, a vector analyzer is used for the measurement. As a capacitive sensor, a interdigital capacitor is used that has geometrical and electrophysical parameters, in which it is not a radiating structure in the range of controlled frequencies. To combine the low-frequency and microwave methods in one sensor, a frequency-isolation scheme is used. The urgency of the method lies in the absence of the need for separate measurements of the sample with the help of various sensors.
