Abstract
The present invention relates to a measuring system for measuring dielectric properties of a multiphase fluid flow in a pipe. The system includes a microwave signal generator connected to the multiphase fluid flow for transmitting signals within a predetermined frequency range into said flow, a signal receiver adapted to receive signals within said range from said flow, and analyzing means for calculating the dielectric properties based on the transmitted and received signals. The signal generator includes: an IQ modulator being coupled to a high frequency oscillator and a low frequency synthesizer, the high frequency oscillator generating a high frequency signal f, and the low frequency synthesizer is adapted to generate signals fat a number of frequencies within a chosen frequency range, said IQ-modulator being adapted to generate an output signal IQconstituted by the combination of said signals from the oscillator and the synthesizer, the predetermined frequencies of the oscillator and the synthesizer being chosen based on the required output frequency range for the IQ-modulator.
