Patents by Inventor Elisabeth Katz

Elisabeth Katz has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10247681
    Abstract: A microwave measuring device having a transmitting module and a receiving module and an apparatus having these modules are described. The two modules are accommodated either in a common housing or in separate housings. The transmitting module can be coupled to a transmitting antenna and the receiving module can be coupled to a receiving antenna. In order to compensate for measurement errors, in particular temperature-related measurement errors, at least one RF bypass cable runs outside the housing/the housings and can be used to couple the transmitting module and the receiving module while bridging the measuring section defined by the two antennas.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9476843
    Abstract: A device for measuring at least one of dielectric and magnetic properties of a sample by means of a microwave transmission measurement includes a transmitting antenna and a receiving antenna defining a transmission measuring section in which the sample to be measured is located, and transmitting and receiving modules. The transmitting and receiving modules include one or more transmission-side and receiving side synthesizers, a clock, one or more transmission side or receiving side mixers to generate intermediate-frequency signals based on high-frequency signals received from the synthesizers, and at least one evaluation unit to perform an evaluation based on the intermediate-frequency signals.

  • Publication number: 20150091585
    Abstract: A device for measuring the dielectric and/or magnetic properties of a sample by means of a microwave transmission measurement, comprising a transmitting antenna and a receiving antenna that define a transmission measuring section in which the sample to be measured can be positioned, at least one transmission-side synthesizer for generating a high-frequency signal with a frequency between 800 MHz and 30 GHz, a frequency standard that is connected via a transmission-side low-frequency synchronization signal line to the transmission-side synthesizer and to which the transmission-side synthesizer is coupled phase-locked reproducible, as well as an evaluation unit which is connected at least indirectly to the transmission-side synthesizer and the receiving antenna.

  • Patent number: 7313220
    Abstract: A device for realizing an online element analysis for a substance (S) that is conveyed past or flows past a measuring station is provided with a device for conveying the substance to be measured, a measuring station with an X-ray source (10), and an X-ray fluorescence detector (20) with radiation inlet. To improve the tolerance to calibration errors and a changing height of the sample surface, at least one first X-ray conductor (30) extends from the radiation inlet of the X-ray fluorescence detector in the direction of the conveying device (51).
