Abstract: A two-dimensional antenna array has n rows of 1×m one-dimensional array and each one-dimensional array is composed of multiple single differential feeding antennas. Each single differential feeding antenna has a differential feeding structure and a microstrip antenna stripe. A longitudinal length of the microstrip antenna stripe is no longer than one wavelength in a dielectric medium, so the microstrip antenna stripe is not excited to a high-order mode. An angle of inclination of a main beam aligns with the broadside and a width of the main beam is further concentrated at elevation direction. The differential feeding structure can reduce an even mode to enhance an isolation. The one and two-dimensional antenna array is miniature by using the small single differential feeding antennas. Isolation and gain of a dual-antenna system using the two-dimensional or one-dimensional antenna arrays are further enhanced and increased if more feeding antenna arrays are used.

Abstract: A device for measuring a surface speed and a liquid level of a fluid is disclosed. The device includes a RF transceiving module for alternatively transmitting a first FMCW signal and a first CW signal to the fluid, and receiving a second FMCW signal and a second CW signal reflected from the fluid. A processor is used for calculating the liquid level of the fluid based on a frequency difference between the first FMCW signal and the second FMCW signal, and for calculating the surface speed of the fluid based on a frequency difference between the first CW signal and the second CW signal. Since the device integrates functions of measuring the surface speed and the liquid level of a fluid, it reduces an occupied room and facilitates a synchronization of data transmission.
