3D Radar Transceiver Module with Integrated Signal Processing

Service Description

End Product

This advanced 3D radar transceiver module features built-in signal processing and tracking capabilities, capable of detecting both moving and stationary objects. It measures speed, direction, distance, and angular position (azimuth and elevation).

Equipped with a radar front end comprising 3 transmit and 4 receive patch antennas, the unit includes a high-performance FPGA for on-board signal processing. The device supports Ethernet for configuration and data readout, along with two configurable digital outputs suited for applications such as collision avoidance or area monitoring.

Its digital architecture and wide input voltage range make the module well-suited for integration in both standalone and microcontroller-based systems. Sensor data can be accessed at various stages of the processing chain, allowing flexibility for integration across different platforms.

Housed in an IP65-rated enclosure with M12 connectors, this radar transceiver is designed for reliable operation in challenging environments, offering ready-to-use capabilities without the need for custom signal processing development.
