Abstract
A system for non-invasive microwave testing a bottle of liquid may include an emission probe for emitting a microwave signal through a wall of the bottle into the liquid and a detection probe for receiving at least a portion of the microwave signal from the liquid via the wall. The system includes a classifier configured to distinguish olive oil from some other common vegetable oils, to distinguish real from some imitation maple syrups, and to distinguish between several alcoholic beverages.
