Brief Description
The RTMS (Remote Traffic Microwave Sensor) measures the distance to objects in the path of
its microwave beam. This ranging capability allows it to detect moving and stationary vehicles
in multiple detection zones.
A single sensor can monitor traffic in up to 8-12 lanes. The sensor can be mounted on road-
side poles and aimed at a right angle to the road; this is referred to as the side-fired
configuration.
The internal processor calculates volume, occupancy, average speed and vehicle classifications
for each lane and transmits the information using its data ports and communication interfaces.
Optional contact closure outputs are also available for compatibility with loop based systems.
