MD01

Description

The MD01 microwave sensor is a last-generation Doppler radar with digital signal processing. It is a very versatile sensor that can be installed both above the lane and at the side of the road to detect speed, count vehicles, and classify them.

The “patch” antenna has an opening angle of 12° x 25° and is able to cover the entire width of the lane.

For optimal performance and good accuracy of the data, it is recommended to install one MD01 per lane. Still, the sensor can detect vehicles even on two lanes and determine the direction of travel.
The antenna signals are analyzed by the internal microcontroller, which, through digital signal processing techniques, provides the following transit data:

• Count;
• Length;
• Classification by length;
• Speed
• Gap.

Microwave technology, using the Doppler effect, is very accurate in detecting the speed.

Microwave technology, using the Doppler effect, accurately detects the speed.

MD01 has two serial lines: one RS232 for connections up to 10-15 meters and one RS485 for long distance connections. It also has a digital output for possible synchronization with cameras.

VERSIONS

In addition to the basic MD01 version, the lighter and more compact MD01-L version is also available.
