abstract = {In this paper, a new measurement method is proposed to estimate simultaneously the complex permittivity and the complex permeability for a magneto-dielectric sample using a X-band rectangular waveguide WR90. The Sij-parameters at the reference planes in the rectangular waveguide loaded by a material sample are measured as a function of frequency using the E8634A Vector Network Analyzer. Also, by applying the two-dimensional finite difference in time domain (2D-FDTD), the expressions for these parameters as a function of complex permittivity and complex permeability are calculated. The Nelder-Mead algorithm is then used to estimate the complex permittivity and complex permeability by matching the measured and calculated Sij-parameters. This method has been validated by estimating, at the X-band, the complex permittivity and complex permeability of two materials such as FR4 Epoxy and Titanium Carbide powder (TiC).},
