A method and a system for processing a reflected microwave signal generated by a radar level gauge system arranged to transmit microwaves towards the material in the tank, and receive a reflection of said microwave signal as a tank signal. The tank signal is processes by a plurality of processes, each process being adapted to determine a process variable in a specific region of the tank, each specific region corresponding to a predefined propagation distance range.Such multi-processing of the received tank signal has the advantage that each process can be optimized to that particular region of the tank. More specifically, a process concerned with a particular region of tank only needs to treat a portion of the tank signal.
