A capacitive position sensor has a periodic array of electrodes which form capacitors between pairs of the electrodes. The location of a dielectric inhomogeneity in the vicinity of the sensor is determined by comparison of the relative change in the capacitance of the capacitors. The comparison may be carried out using a capacitive Wheatstone Bridge arrangement. The sensor configuration has the advantage that it is independent of the absolute value of the dielectric constant of the environment in which the sensor is located.

A radar system has a phased-array antenna and plural local oscillators for controlling local transmit / receive units. The local oscillators are slaved to a master oscillator. The analog clock signal paths are subject to relative changes in electrical length. The electrical lengths of the signal paths are measured by phase-detecting forward- and reverse-direction clock signal flows. The phase-detected information for each signal path is a measure of the time delay. The radar command processor receives the measure of time delay and corrects the radar operation in response thereto.
