Radar level gauge system comprising: a communication module configured to be connected to an external communication device; a measurement module configured to generate, transmit and receive a measurement signal; a control connection configured to connect the communication module to the measurement module, the control connection being configured to be in a high-impedance mode at least during a measurement by the measurement module; a power supply configured to provide power to the measurement module; an energy storage coupled to the power supply; a measurement connection connecting the communication module to the energy storage, wherein the energy storage is arranged to be charged by the measurement connection and configured to provide power to the power supply for performing a measurement by the measurement module; and a switch arranged between the communication module and the energy storage, the switch being controllable to break the measurement connection between the communication module and the energy storage during a measurement by the measurement module.

Radar level gauge system and method for controlling the radar level gauge system

A radar level gauge system comprising a transceiver; a signal propagation arrangement power monitoring circuitry for determining a presently available power for operation of the radar level gauge system; and processing circuitry coupled to the transceiver and to the power monitoring circuitry, and configured to: acquire a measure indicative of the presently available power for operation of the radar level gauge system from the power monitoring circuitry; perform a set of measurement operations dependent on the presently available power for operation of the radar level gauge system, each measurement operation including controlling the transceiver to generate and transmit an electromagnetic transmit signal, to receive an electromagnetic reflection signal, and to form a measurement signal indicative of a timing relation between the transmit signal and the reflection signal; and determine the filling level based on the measurement signal formed in each of the measurement operations in the set of measurement operations.
