Radar Velocity

This page will be dedicated to a radar velocity sensor.

27th January 2020

We have ordered some radar sensors from Acconneer, namely the A111, in the XM132, and XE132. And some radar lenses for these.

  Acconneer Python Portable Exploration Tool in sparse short time FFT mode

The XE132 from acconeer comes with pre-compiled binary software, that allow it to connect via micro USB to a computer and create visualizations of the data.

The XE132 was set up as per the user guide, as was the Acconneer portable exploration tool.

Of interest to our application is the sparse short-time FFT visualisation as it allows the speed to be determined at different distances from the sensor.
