Dielectric based sensing of atmospheric ice

Atmospheric ice is a naturally occurring mixture with lots of variations. It doesn’t only bind the chemistry of water, but also its physics. The variations of this complex mixture are directly associated with the surrounding dynamics. In this paper we are mainly concerned about the variations in the electrical properties of atmospheric ice due to variation in the surrounding temperature, conductivities, volumetric contents and relaxation time. All these variations are conveniently measured using the permittivity/dielectric sensing principles. Also these calculations can later be utilized to formulate the atmospheric ice type, icing rate and ice thickness.
