1. A material-penetrative positioning method for locating a measurement signal on walls, ceilings, and floors, comprising steps of:
- transmitting a measurement signal (22, 122) in the gigahertz frequency range using a high-frequency transmitter (20, 120) positioned at a first surface (14) of a material (10) to penetrate the material at least once;
moveably positioning a reflecting means (126) at a second surface (16) of the material (10) to reflect a portion of the measurement signal (22, 122) that has penetrated; and
receiving a portion of the measurement signal portion reflected from the reflecting means (126) using a high-frequency receiver (24, 124) positioned at the first surface (14) of the material (10) to locate a penetration position (18) of the measurement signal.

Abstract
The invention relates to a method for the material-penetrative localization of a measurement signal, in particular a material-penetrative positioning method for use on walls, ceilings, and floors.
According to the invention, a high-frequency transmitter (20, 120) emits a measurement signal (22, 122) in the gigahertz frequency range, which penetrates the material (10) at least once and is detected by a high-frequency receiver (24, 124) in order to locate the penetration position (18).
The invention also relates to a device for carrying out the method.

12. A material-penetrative positioning system for locating a measurement signal on walls, ceilings, and floors, comprising:
-
a high-frequency transceiver (100) positioned on a first surface (14) of a material (10) for transmitting a measurement signal (22, 122) in the gigahertz frequency range into and penetrating the material (10) at least once; and a reflecting means (126) that is movably positioned at a second surface (16) of the material (10) to reflect a portion of the measurement signal (22, 122) that has penetrated; wherein the high-frequency transceiver (100) receive a portion of the measurement signal portion reflected from the reflecting means (126) back to said first surface (14) of the material (10) to locate a penetration position (18) of the measurement signal. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14)
