| 20090273506 | METHOD OF DETERMINING A DISTURBANCE ECHO PROFILE FOR A RADAR LEVEL GAUGE SYSTEM - A method of determining a filling level of a product contained in a tank, the method comprising generating and transmitting electromagnetic signals; propagating the transmitted electromagnetic signals towards a surface of the product contained in the tank; receiving echo signals resulting from reflections at impedance transitions encountered by the transmitted electromagnetic signals, including a surface echo signal resulting from reflection at a surface of the product; determining a position of a reference impedance transition using a reference echo signal resulting from reflection of the transmitted electromagnetic signals at the reference impedance transition; determining an update level located above the surface, based on the determined position of the reference impedance transition and a known position of the reference impedance transition; determining a disturbance echo profile using at least one of the echo signals resulting from reflection of the transmitted signals at at least one impedance transition located above the update level; and determining the filling level based on the received echo signals and the disturbance echo profile. | 11-05-2009 |

| 20090085794 | RADAR LEVEL GAUGE SYSTEM - A radar level gauge system, for determining a filling level of a product contained in a tank, comprising a transceiver configured to transmit and receive electromagnetic signals, a probe arranged to extend towards and into the product inside the tank and configured to guide transmitted signals towards a surface of the product, where signals are reflected, and reflected signals back from the surface of the product. The probe has a mechanical and direct electrical connection to a conductive tank structure. The radar level gauge system further comprises processing circuitry connected to the transceiver and configured to determine the filling level based on the transmitted and reflected signals, and a probe coupling device connected to the transceiver. The probe coupling device includes a first coupling segment configured to couple electromagnetic signals between the transceiver and the probe with a first coupling efficiency and a second coupling segment configured to couple electromagnetic signals between the transceiver and the probe with a second coupling efficiency, the second coupling efficiency being different from the first coupling efficiency. | 04-02-2009 |
