Several benefits exist for using radar for traffic detection. Radar sensors are relatively easy to

set up and operate, and they have been shown to be among the most accurate non-intrusive

vehicle detection technologies. Another benefit of radar sensors is that they can be deployed

alongside the roadway, allowing them to be used in a safe environment.

The radar sensors used in this study are among the most commonly used radar-based sensors

available (manufactured by Wavetronix and Electronic Integrated Systems (EIS)) and use

frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar technology. Both companies have been

in existence for several years, and are continually improving their devices. Some commonalities

exist among the different sensors, such as being powered by 12-volt marine deep-cycle

batteries, and communicating through a RS-232 serial port. The following sections provide

more detail on the sensors that will be used in this study. Figure 1 shows each of the sensors

used in this study, which are mounted using the tripod structures.
