This paper presents an inkjet printing capacitive microwave sensor for toxic vapor detection. The designed sensors were presented and fabricated with success. The experiments show sensitivity to ethanol vapor according to the S parameters. It is equal to 0.9 kHz/ppm and 1.3 kHz/ppm for the sensors based on 5 and 50 sensitive layers respectively. This sensor will be integrated into real-time multi-sensing platforms adaptable for the Internet of Things (IoT).
