This article presents a software package based on the C++ language for accurate computation of material properties of a stratified media using an open ended coaxial probe (OECP). Since OECP is one of the most commonly used sensors for evaluation of materials today, the program developed can be customized for real time nondestructive evaluation of materials. The main contribution of this article is a computationally efficient software for solving an infinite domain integral with multiple singularities based on plane wave spectrum theory. The computed results for aperture admittance of the coaxial probe using the developed software show good agreement with both measurements and results from a commercial solver using the finite element method (FEM). It is also proved that, the execution time per frequency point of the developed code is much faster than FEM.
