Abstract

Sensor elements play an important role in future manufacturing plants. This paper presents a solution for an foil thickness sensor for running production lines. Based on the elaborated Six-Port concept, a differential measuring concept is proposed and discussed. Furthermore, an end-fire antenna design for the addressed application is demonstrated and far field measurement results are shown and compared to simulation. Finally, interference effects between two antennas are experimentally investigated as a function of the relative rotation between two oppositely placed devices.
