Abstract
It is shown that the method of measurement using the area under the resonance curve in resonator sensors as the informative parameter is considerably more sensitive to the quantity being measured than the method based on measurement of the resonance frequency. An example of the use of the method to determine the level of a dielectric liquid in a tank using a radio-wave resonator sensor is considered.
