A microwave sensor for non-destructive measurement of dielectric thickness is presented. The sensor is a quasi-static resonator and based on complementary split ring resonator (CSRR) structure. When the CSRR structure is backed by a conductive medium covered with a dielectric layer the resonance frequency of the CSRR has a strong dependence on the thickness of the dielectric layer. Effect of the size of CSRR sensor on the sensitivity is analyzed numerically. For experimental verification, a CSRR sensor that operates in the 1.6 to 2.3 GHz band is fabricated and excited by a microstrip line.
