    If you point the beam of the Pocket Radar™ even a slight angle sideways to the path of the moving object, you will measure a slower speed than the object actually travels along its path. You will also find it more difficult to time the measurement and capture the object within the narrow beam of the radar when you measure off angle.
  • Page 7 POCKET RADAR™ Radar Measurement Challenges (Con’t) This off angle speed measurement error is referred to as the COSINE error, named after the mathematical function that allows you to calculate the exact speed versus angle. The measured speed will always read lower than the actual speed as you move off the centerline of the path of the moving object.

There may be times when the speed reading displayed may not make sense, or when there is no apparent moving object present. False readings of this kind are sometimes referred to as “ghost readings”.
