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.
