Method for analyzing a measurement object, where n is a number greater than or equal to 1, comprising the following steps: - Generating a generator
signal, - Direct forwarding of the generator
signal to an input switch (2), - Forwarding the generator
signal as a leading wave to a
coupling unit (3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4) selected by means of the input switch (2), - Tapping a reference signal (a x = i,j,k,l ) from the leading wave in the
coupling unit (3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4), - Forwarding the leading wave to a measuring object, - Return of a wave reflected from the object under test to the selected
coupling unit (3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4) and extraction of a corresponding return signal (b x = i,j,k,l ) from the returning wave through the selected coupling unit (3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4) and / or - Transmission of a wave transmitted through the object under test to another coupling unit (3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4) and extraction of a corresponding transmission signal (b x = i,j,k,l ) from the transmitted wave through the other coupling unit (3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4), - Feeding in the tapped signals (a x = i,j,k,l , b x = i,j,k,l ) to a single measuring point (5) via a coupling switch (4), - Separating and demodulating the tapped signals (a x = i,j,k,l , b x = i,i,k,l ) at the measuring point (5) and - Calculation of the behavior of the object being measured at the measuring point (5).
