Linear velocity sensor TGSS

Doppler

True Ground Speed Sensor: Measurement of true vehicle speed regardless of wheel size or slippage. For use where accurate speed measurement is required. Essential for anti-slip systems/ traction control etc. Application: Non-contacting signal input for true measurement of vehicle speed regardless of wheel size or wheel slippage. Used where accurate speed measurement is required. Essential for anti-slip systems, traction control etc. RDS Technology also supplies a wide range of instrumentation to be used with the TGSS. Principle of operation: The TGSS uses the well known principle of Doppler shift. A low power K band microwave beam is transmitted at, and reflected from, the ground. The reflected signal differs from the transmitted one by the doppler shift. The difference in frequency is directly proportional to the forward speed. The kit includes Sensor, Mounting Plate, Extension Cable, Fixings and fasteners.
