Detection Principle and Basic Operation of the Sensor

● Detection Principle
This sensor uses reflection of a microwave signal to detect a vehicle.
(The higher the reflection, the easier the detection becomes.)
The microwave sensor uses FMCW technology, it can detect a vehicle in the lot.
The detection logic is shown below.
Microwave Sensor
Detection Area
If only a person enters into the detection area, the
relay signal output will not trigger (It may detect,
however if a crowd of pedestrian or a person with
luggage).
If a vehicle is parked in the detection area, the sensor
will maintain the detection status.
NOTE
The following cases may occur due to the sensor detection principles.
If a pedestrian or an object is in the detection area after the Vehicle leaves, the sensor
will maintain the detection status even if the vehicle leaves the detection area.
The sensor may not revert back to a non-detection status if a flag/banner, tall weeds,
and/or snow remain.
If one vehicle tailgates another vehicle very closely when entering the detection area,
they may be recognized as one vehicle.
When a vehicle is present, the sensor detects the vehicle.
When the vehicle leaves the detection area, the sensor will
change to a non-detection status.
