摘要：
Measurement of molten glass level in glass furnaces is a key issue for the control of the production process. Nowadays several different technologies shall be used for this purpose, with their advantages and drawbacks. In this paper a novel level sensor is proposed, it is based on radar interferometry technique, and it is designed to provide high accuracy measurements, high reliability and a very low maintenance.
