A vehicle traffic sensor for detecting and monitoring vehicular targets is presented. The sensor employs a planar design resulting in a reduced profile sensor. The sensor includes a multi-layer radio frequency board with RF components on one of the sides and both isolation and planar array antennas on the opposing side. The antennas are preferably tapered planar array antennas which include one transmit antenna and one receive antenna. The sensor also includes at least one logic or signal processing board populated with components on a first side and a ground plane on a second side positioned toward the RF componentry of the RF board to form an RF shield. The boards are housed within a housing that is permeable, at least on the side through which the antenna structures propagate.

Vehicular traffic sensor

A system for installing drain pipes and water supply lines in relation to the drain pipes is disclosed. The system includes a bracket for attachment to the drain pipe with support arms to hold water supply lines at desired locations in relation to the drain pipe. The bracket may comprise a collar for attachment to the drain pipe with indexing protrusions or shoulders to orient the bracket with respect to the drain pipe, and support arms extending outwardly from the collar to support the supply lines. The system may also include a bracket for securing the drain pipe in relation to the structure.

Plumbing support system

A method for determining location information for an airborne target includes synthesizing a cyclic transmit signal, transmitting an electromagnetic beam corresponding to the cyclic transmit signal, providing a plurality of vertically offset return signals corresponding to at least two receive antennas that are vertically offset, down-converting the plurality of vertically offset return signals with the cyclic transmit signal to provide a corresponding plurality of baseband signals, determining magnitude and phase information for each vertically offset return signal as a function of range from the corresponding baseband signal, and determining elevation information for an airborne target from the magnitude and phase information. Azimuthal information for the airborne target may be determined by tracking amplitude variations in the return signal in response to azimuthal rotation of the receive antennas. A corresponding apparatus, system, and computer readable medium are also disclosed herein.

Tracking apparatus and method for airborne targets

A compact synthetic aperture radar system and associated methods are disclosed.

Synthetic aperture radar system and methods

An interferometric switched beam radar apparatus and method are disclosed. In one embodiment, a selected antenna of a planar array of beam forming antennas is activated with a substantially continuous frequency modulated transmit signal and a return signal is received from at least two return antennas that have a known offset distance relative to each other. Phase information is extracted from each return signal and used to present information regarding an operating environment to a user. Each beam forming antenna within the array may correspond to a particular viewing angle within the operating environment.

The present invention extends to configuring detection zones in a traffic monitoring system and to association of detection zones with corresponding traffic signal phases. One or more sensors detect targets within a roadway intersection. The sensors integrate acquired sensor data for the targets into track files. The track files are subsequently used to identify common target paths. A histogram is used to identify common target positions for stationary targets. From the common target positions and the common target paths detection zones are configured. Detection zones are associated with traffic signal phases so that specific detections can be created. Lane boundaries within the roadway intersection are inferred from the common target paths. Permanent stationary target locations are identified from the common target positions.
