LP-DS200 Doppler Radar Speed Sensor is a true-gound speed sensor and active motion detector for moving objects, based on Radar Doppler technology. LP-DS200 deploys a Radar Frontend with planar antennas continously emitting electromagnetic waves at 24 GHz. Due to the movement of the sensor or the object the frequency of the back-scattered waves are doppler shifted. Doppler signal is deployed for speed measurement.
The forward speed of e.g. an indoor transportation vehicle, fork lift, conveyor belt, off-highway vehicle and rail applications is measured contactless thus unsusceptible to wheel / drive slip, effective tyre circumference and sinking in of the tyre. For demanding applications LP-DS200 Doppler Radar Speed Sensor is sealed and potted in a rugged encasing.
LP-DS200 Doppler Radar Speed Sensor is available in variants with pulse, serial RS232 and CAN-Bus output. High speed up to 200 km/h is available.
-Main features-
• Measurement of speed and distance travelled independent on wheel / drive slip
• High dynamics and signal update rate
• Easy installation in parallel to the object being measured
• Unsusceptible against varying properties of the ground surface
• Pulse Output according to DIN 9684 / ISO 11786 and serial RS232
• Option: high speed up to 200km/h
• Option: CAN-Bus interface
• Detection of direction of movement (forward - backward)
• Basis for precise output application e.g. spraying, fertilizer application, seeding req uiring forward speed & distance travelled
• dead reckoning system component for inertial measurement units IMS in GPS/GNS• S-denied environments e.g. in-doors, tunnels, underground mining .....
