Abstract
The present invention relates to a topology-acquiring radar level gauge for measuring a fill level and a topology of a fill material, comprising: a radar unit; an antenna having at least one transmitting element and at least two receiving elements; a control unit; and a memory, in which at least two different sets of calibration data are stored in the memory.
Claims18
A topology-detecting radar level measuring device for determining a filling level and a topology of a filling material, comprising
- a. a radar unit,
- b. an antenna with at least one transmitting element and at least two receiving elements,
- c. a control unit and
- d. storage
- wherein at least two different sets of calibrating data are stored in said storage.
A method for calibrating a topology-detecting radar level measuring device for determining a filling level and a topology of a filling material with a radar unit, the device comprising an antenna with at least one transmitting element and at least two receiving elements, a control unit and storage, the method comprising
- a. determining at least two different sets of calibrating data and
- b. storing said two different sets of calibrating data in said storage during a calibration of the radar level measuring device.
A method for operating a topology-detecting radar level measuring device for determining a filling level and a topology of a filling material with a radar unit, the device comprising an antenna with at least one transmitting element and at least two receiving elements, a control unit and storage containing at least two sets of calibrating data, the method comprising selecting one of said at least two sets of calibrating data.
