This paper presents a solution for a foil thickness sensor for running production lines. Based on the elaborated Six-Port principle, 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.enTechnology::600: TechnologyDifferential measuring dual six-port concept and antenna design for an inline foil thickness sensorConference Paper10.1109/GEMIC.2016.7461581
