spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/11684 Design and implementation of a non-contact microwave level measument instrument Ward, Jonathan Michael Inggs, Mike Electrical Engineering Includes abstract. Includes bibliographical references (leaves 104-110). This dissertation describes the design and implementation of a microwave level measurement instrument for sensing the level of a substance inside a tank up to 10 m in height. A radar transceiver had to be designed to replace an acoustic sensor on an existing 4-20 mA loop powered ultrasonic instrument and had to be compatible with its on-board acoustic signal processing hardware. Specifications are developed for a pulsed radar architecture operating at 5.8 GHz with a bandwidth around 1 GHz and at a repetition frequency of 3.58 MHz. 2015-01-07T13:28:08Z 2015-01-07T13:28:08Z 2010 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11684 eng application/pdf Department of Electrical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town
