Abstract:
1. A modular system for assembling a fill-level radar antenna, comprising: a first module; and a second module; wherein the first module includes a housing and a base antenna horn that is filled with dielectric material and that feeds the second module with a transmission signal, wherein the second module radiates the transmission signal to a fill level surface, wherein the second module is selected from a group comprising an expansion horn, a parabolic antenna, a filled antenna horn, an antenna horn with a lens, an upright-tube antenna, and a rod antenna, wherein the housing has a rear portion and an opposite front portion which faces the second module and which comprises a mounting ring or a circumferential projection for holding the dielectric material, wherein the dielectric material is inserted into the housing from the rear portion, and wherein, after insertion of the dielectric material into the housing, the base antenna horn is inserted into the housing from the rear portion.
