Traffic management solutions comprise applications like controlling intersections, optimizing the traffic flow or counting vehicles simultaneously on many lanes. Smartmicro's latest traffic Radar sensors can supply such traffic management solutions with all required information:

• x and y position of all vehicles,
• velocity x and y component (vector) of all vehicles,
• vehicle to lane mapping,
• tracking and classification algorithms.

The latest generation 09xx is extremely robust, operates under all wheather conditions and in a temperature interval from -40°C to +85°C. Learn more about this technology: Universal Medium Range Radar

Providing this oustanding performance, one Radar may replace up to two conventional loop detectors per lane (i.e. on a four lane road eight loop detectors can be replaced by one Radar device). In addition to that, the microwave sensor has many more advantages:

• Low installation cost.
• Zero maintenance cost.
• Long lifetime.
• All weather operation, high availability.
• Combination with cameras possible (in network).
• Self calibration / self diagnostics on board (i.e. sensor blind etc.)
• Self alignment available.
• Sensors can be mounted invisibly behind plastic or other, nonconductive material.

Sensor Network:
Through a proprietary digital interface, a CAN or Ethernet (electrical or fibre channel) based communication between all sensors and one or more traffic control processors is established. Sensor fusion and traffic control / crossroads control processing may be located centrally. A duplex WiFi (820.11g) link Radar sensor - traffic controller is availble on request.
