<p>The barrier (10) has a first microwave unit (14a) including a transmitter and a first antenna (16a) to radiate microwave signal, and a second microwave unit (14b) with a receiver and a second antenna (16b) to receive the microwave signal. An evaluation unit recognizes whether an object (17) is in a microwave path (12) between the microwave units from the received microwave signal. The first and second microwave units include a radio frequency transceiver to radiate and receive the microwave signals. The transceiver is portion of an integrated digital building block for wireless communication. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a level sensor for determining filling level of medium in a container with a microwave barrier (2) a method for recognition of an object in a microwave path.</p> |
