摘要: Method and device for measuring the distance to an object, particularly surface (17) of a liquid (16) in container (15). An antenna (11) is arranged from aimed against (17), being connected unit (12), channel (13) control (14). A microwave signal with predetermined frequency generated which part utilized as reference signal, while further input transmitted (17). From reflected received by supplied (12) function reflection coefficient formed. This adapted current condition. fourier transformation set values this at certain frequencies made, calculated.
