Figure 3: RCPD and Transceiver
The RCPD (3) gener-
ates
the
RADAR
transmit
modulation
signal and passes it
to the transceiver (2)
through cable (15). It
analyses
the
backscattered receiv-
er signal, calculates
Doppler spectra and
transfers
average
power spectra (re-
ferred to as “raw da-
ta”) to the control and
evaluation PC, where
these spectra are in-
terpreted. The RCPD
is located in a water
protected IP65 hous-
ing, which is fixed to
the antenna arm (8).
At the bottom side of
the RCPD is the
socket (14) for cable
(7). The electronic
components
inside
the
housing
don‟t
need any service. As
far as possible the
RCPD should not be
opened by the user.
