Introduction
The microwave device consists of two TX and RX units to be positioned at opposite ends of the
protected area. The TX unit emits electromagnetic waves in the direction of the RX unit that
receives them, processes them and translates them into an electrical signal that is analyzed.
The intruder who crosses the detection area (ZR) causes a change in the signal.
The intensity and type of signal depend on the following factors:
- size and mass of the intruder who crosses the ZR
- speed and time of crossing the ZR
- conformation and soil conditions
