It should be noted that when using a half-circle transmitter 60, the mid-point of the semicircle corresponds to the position of the transmitter 40 shown in FIG.
- the center of the semicircle preferably lies on the one hand within a plane with the receivers 10, 20, 30 and on the other hand on a straight line with the receivers 10, 20.
- the signal origin lies at a predetermined distance h (radius of the half-circle transmitter 60) from the origin of the receiver Coordinate system (see Fig. 7).
- the three transit time measurements are performed by means of the half-circle transmitter 60 and the three receivers 10, 20, 30.

- the two auxiliary lines J ⁇ ⁇ and d are always perpendicular to the x-axis and are connected to the top 50 with the object. Together with the route a these form one
- the determination of the x-coordinate of the object 50 in three-dimensional space takes place via Eqs. and Eq. (20).
- the Gl. gives the x coordinate of the object 50 for a runtime distance at U sel > U se2 and Eq. (20) the x-coordinate for a runtime distance at U sel ⁇ U se2 .
- U sel > U se2 and U sel ⁇ U se2 can just as well be U sel > U se2 and U sel ⁇ U se2 .
- the routes U sel , U se2 and U se3 are routes which arise through the running time (sum of the distance s and the respective distance e n ). These routes are over the
- Propagation speed c of the signal and the transit times t 1? t 2 and t 3 of the signal are determined as follows:
- the Eqs. (22) has a positive sign at y> q- ⁇ a ⁇ and ⁇ > 0 for the y-coordinate in three-dimensional space, and at y ⁇ q- ⁇ a ⁇ and ⁇ ⁇ 0. For all other value ranges, Eq. (22) a negative sign.
- FIG. 9 shows a half-circle transmitter 60 and two receivers 10, 20.
- the position of the object 50 lies at the intersection of the two elliptical orbits (semi-elliptical orbits). From the condition that the signal of the half-circle transmitter propagates above the plane, the point of intersection which determines the position of the object 50 is also arranged above the two-dimensional construct (above the x 2D -axis) according to FIG. It is clear that the
- Semicircular transmitter 60 can radiate in any other direction than in this Example. In any case, it is clear that due to the limited transmission range of the half-circle transmitter 60, the relevant point of intersection of the object is determined.
- Fig. 11 shows a third embodiment of the present invention with three sensors 100, 200, 300.
- the sensors 100, 200, 300 can each be a component having both transmit and receive functionality.
- at least three sensors 100, 200, 300 with receiving functionality are to be provided, and at least one of the at least three sensors 100, 200, 300 may be equipped with additional transmitting functionality.
- all of the at least three sensors 100, 200, 300 may also be equipped with transmitting and receiving functionality, for example in order to obtain e.g. allow the system to send from different send positions (either simultaneously or with a time delay).
- the determination of the three-dimensional position of an object 50 may be performed on the basis of three propagation time measurements.
- the three transit time measurements are performed according to the third embodiment by means of three sensors 100, 200, 300, whereby at least one sensor (e.g., sensor 100) can transmit and receive. It is also possible that a separate transmitting and receiving device are installed close to each other to send and receive more or less from the same position.
- a sensor 100, 200, 300 may each consist of two separate transmitting and receiving devices, which are arranged in close proximity to each other.
- a signal is emitted by the sensor 100, which propagates in three-dimensional space until it encounters an object 50 (distance s) and is partially reflected.
- the reflected portions of the signal strike the three sensors 100, 200, 300 (paths e / , ⁇ 2, ei). This results in the three transit times that arise from the transit time from the sensor 100 to the object 50 together with the transit time from the object 50 to the individual sensors 100, 200, 300 (transit time measurement).
- the three sensors 100, 200, 300 are preferably arranged in one plane (i.e., at the same height).
- the sensor 300 may be the distance b in the x direction and the y direction in the y direction
- the distances a and b may each Assume value, wherein the distance a is preferably not equal to zero.
- the coordinate origin 0 is preferably located on a straight line which preferably extends between the sensor 100 and 200. It will be understood, however, that the location of the origin O does not affect the feasibility of the present invention.
- the geometric construction according to FIG. 12 is viewed from above (top view of the z-axis), the geometric construction according to FIG. 13 a results together with the auxiliary lines. If the geometric construct according to FIG. 12 is viewed from the side (top view of the x-axis), then the geometric construction according to FIG. 13b results together with the auxiliary lines.

- Equation for the z-coordinate of the object 50 in three-dimensional space Equation for the z-coordinate of the object 50 in three-dimensional space:
- the Eq. (29) has a positive sign at a> 0 and a negative sign at a ⁇ 0 (for the upper position of the object 50). For the lower position, the sign is reversed.
- the routes U sel , U se2 and U se3 are routes that arise through the running time (sum of the distance s and the respective distance e n ). These routes are over the
- Propagation speed c of the signal and the transit times t l3 1 2 and t 3 of the signal determined as follows:
- auxiliary lines x 2D and y 2D mentioned in the above equations are the x and y coordinates of the object 50 when determining the position of the object 50 in two-dimensional space (possibly in the second plane).
- Two-dimensional space requires a transmitter 100 and two receivers 100, 200 (see Fig. 14). From Fig. 14 follows the geometric construct of FIG. 15a. Wherein, according to FIG. 15b, two circular paths or semicircular paths are formed by the two propagation paths. The positive result of equation (37) and equation (38) for the circular paths describes the upper semicircular path and the negative one the lower one.
- the two elliptical or semi-elliptical orbits created by the two transit times can both be replaced by ellipsoids.
- the object is somewhere on the path, which is created by the two intersecting ellipsoids. Accordingly, even in the case of the circular path, the circular paths or semicircular paths, which arise through the two transit times, are both replaced by balls. The object will then be somewhere on the path created by the two intersecting spheres.
- the third runtime then produces a third ellipsoid / sphere which intersects with the orbit (which results from cutting the first two ellipsoids / spheres). There are two intersections at the top in the positive and negative in the bottom, which correspond to the three-dimensional position of the object. Then, e.g. be selected by the directivity of the transmitter and / or the receiver of one of the two points as the correct position of the object.
- Semi-elliptical paths / semicircular path then intersects with the ellipsoid / ball, creating two points of intersection in the second plane (in which the elliptical path / circular path or semi-elliptic path lies).
- the intersection or the intersections, above in the positive and below in the negative range at transmitters and receivers which can send and capture 360 °
- the second plane which by the one elliptical orbit / orbit
- An ellipsoid / sphere may also be created by the third transit time, which intersects with the intersection (or intersections, see above) in the second plane, thereby determining the three-dimensional position.
- the sensor 16 shows, by way of example, the above-mentioned possibility of switching through the transmission functionality of the various sensors 100, 200, 300.
- the sensor 200 assumes the transmission and reception functionality, the sensors 100, 300 acting merely as receivers.
- the sensor 100 takes over the transmission and
- Receive functionality and the sensors 200, 300 act exclusively as receivers.
- the sensor 300 takes over the transmission and reception functionality and the sensors 100, 200 act exclusively as receivers. It may be beneficial if this functionality can be controlled as needed, ie at each new measurement, another sensor 100, 200, 300 could act as a transmitter and at the same time as a receiver.
- Fig. 17 schematically shows an exemplary signal measured at one of the receivers.
- a synchronization pulse square wave signal at the beginning of the pulse sequence in FIG. 17
- Fig. 17 shows a first signal 1 (t 1, Pl ) which is the direct radiation
- the subsequent pulses 2-5 are the signals reflected from different objects 1-n.
- the pulse height (amplitude) and the measured propagation time (t 1> p 2 , t 1 > p3 , t ljp4 , t 1, Pn ,) how large the object is.
- the signals 2 and 5 are compared with one another, it can be seen, inter alia, that the two signals have substantially the same amplitude, but that the signal 5 has a significantly longer transit time (t 1 pn > t 1, P2 ). From this it can be concluded that the nth object must be larger than the first object.
- the width of the signal can be used to determine the extent of the object. The wider (longer) the signal, the wider the object. Consider, e.g. the signal 3, it can be seen that this is much wider than the other signals. It can
- the second object has a larger extent than the other objects.
- the second object could e.g. a tube (small reflection surface, larger extent).
- This embodiment of the present invention may, among other things, be configured to control the signals, preferably the wider signals, e.g. to represent the signal 3 by several short pulses (by appropriate evaluation algorithms and hardware). This allows the object to be represented as a point cloud so as to better capture the object geometry.
- a speed determined by the Doppler effect of the individual objects or dots can be determined.
- the 3D position / position of the object or several objects, the nature of the object or objects, the speed of the object or objects and / or the individual points (point cloud) can be determined simultaneously (from a measurement).
- the wave impinges on the extended object as a spherical wave (electromagnetic waves, e.g., radio waves, microwaves, heat radiation, light, X-rays, gamma rays, pressure waves, e.g., acoustic waves, shock waves, gravitational waves, radiation, e.g.
- a spherical wave electromagnetic waves, e.g., radio waves, microwaves, heat radiation, light, X-rays, gamma rays, pressure waves, e.g., acoustic waves, shock waves, gravitational waves, radiation, e.g.
- Particle radiation and wave radiation Plasma waves; Matter waves; Bending waves; seismic waves; magnetic waves; electric waves).
- a surface is thus first scanned in the middle and then at the edges.
- FIG. 18 further shows by way of example two surfaces 51, 52 (extended objects) which reflect a signal emitted from the sensor unit 100 (transmitter and receiver). For the sake of clarity, only the reflected signals are shown in FIG.
- the surface 51 is located to the left of the sensor unit 100, and therefore reflects the signal on the right side (solid line) first. Finally, the left side (dashed line) of surface 51 reflects the signal back to sensor 100.
- the surface 52 is in this example below the sensor unit 100, slightly offset to the left and reflects the first signal (solid line) out of the surface 52.
- the reflected signal of the right side of the surface 52 arrives a little later on the sensor 100, so it takes a longer time (dotted line).
- the left side (dashed line) of the surface 52 reflects the signal back to the sensor 100.
- the surfaces 51, 52 reflect the signal over the entire surface. However, only individual reflected signals have been shown in FIG. 18 for a better overview.
- FIG. 19 shows the time profile of the received signal reflected at the areas 51, 52 (at one of the receivers, eg sensor 100 from FIG. 18).
- the reflected signals from the individual surfaces 51, 52 have a temporal extension t pn compared to the reflected signals (signals 1 to 5 from FIG. 17) at the individual point objects. Due to the pulse height (amplitude) and / or the area below the waveform (integrated over the waveform), the measured transit time t n and / or pulse duration t pn , the size and / or the reflectance of a
- the solid line corresponds to the signal in a first receiver
- the dashed line corresponds to the signal in a second receiver
- the finer dashed line corresponds to FIG Signal in a third receiver
- the signals In the signal profile to the reflection at the first surface 51 it can be seen that the reflected signals, due to the receiver arranged in the space, arrive with a time delay.
- the signal to the reflection on the second surface 52 shows that the reflected signals strike the individual receivers at the same time, since the signal is first reflected just below the transmitter and the receivers, in this example, have the same distance to the transmitter ,
- the signals stop timing, because the surface 52 is not exactly below the sensor unit 100 but is slightly shifted to the left.
- the position is determined from the transit time t n , one obtains the position of the point on the surface 51, 52 from which the signal was first reflected. If the position is measured from the time to the end of the signal (transit time t n + pulse duration t pn ), one obtains the position of the point on the surface 51, 52 from which the signal was last reflected. From these two position values, for areas 51, 52 which are not located below the transmitter 100, one obtains the starting position and the end position of the surface 51, 52 and thus the position and the extent of an extended object in space.
- the beginning and end point of the surface 51, 52 e.g. either the measurement is performed again with a transmitter that is not above the surface 51, 52 (the transmitter must be more than one wavelength away from the other (first) transmitter) or e.g.
- the individual reflection signals can be assigned to the individual surfaces 51, 52.
- Reflection signals may e.g. above:
- Reflection signals generated by the spatial distribution of the sensors the similar waveforms (each reflected signal has a, by the object, specific waveform with which at least three signals reflected on the same object can be assigned to each other)
- the duration of the reflection (the duration of reflection depends on the extent of the object and can therefore be assigned to the objects of different sizes, the duration of the reflection being longer, especially in the case of surfaces
- the received signals must not be superimposed. This means that the individual surfaces 51, 52 should have a minimum distance of more than one wavelength from one another in order to be recognized as two individual surfaces 51, 52 (if the surfaces 51, 52 are at a distance of one wavelength or less from each other, they become recognized as a contiguous area 51, 52).
- a special case are two objects / surfaces 53, 54 which have the same distance ( ⁇ one wavelength) to the sensor 100 but are offset in different directions (see FIG. 21).
- the reflected signals would be superimposed and could not be assigned to the individual areas.
- this may e.g. either by a repeated measurement with a transmitter which is not located exactly between the surfaces 53, 54 (the transmitter must have a distance of more than one wavelength to the position of the other (first) transmitter) or e.g. the procedure whereby all three sensors are transmitted with different keys (different frequencies or encrypted signal) and then applied to received (the individual sensors should be spaced more than one wavelength apart).
- Fig. 22 shows a schematic representation of a rough surface.
- the roughness consists of points and points.
- the position of each peak and area can, as described above, and thereby the nature and in particular the surface condition (3D scan of the surface / point cloud of the surface) of an object are determined.
- the wavelength also determines the resolution limit of the roughness of the surface to be examined.
- the above-described methods may e.g. also in vacuum, in gases (e.g., air), in liquids (e.g., water), in solids (e.g., iron under standard conditions), or in plasma environments.
- gases e.g., air
- liquids e.g., water
