Abstract
A radar gauge adapted to sense fluid level in a tank and including a radar gauge circuit in which radar transmission and level sampling are controlled by a transmit frequency and a sample frequency respectively. A first frequency separation between first and second frequencies is controlled by a control input. The first and second frequencies can be divided to generate the transmit and sample frequencies, separated by a second frequency separation. At least one frequency difference is evaluated and the evaluation used to generate the control input, stabilizing the first frequency difference, and to correct the gauge output.
