  3. Parking sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parking_sensor

    Electromagnetic sensors rely on the vehicle moving slowly and smoothly towards the object to be avoided. Once an obstacle is detected, the sensor continues to signal the presence of the obstacle even if the vehicle momentarily stops. If the vehicle then resumes moving backwards the alarm signal becomes louder as the obstacle is approached.

    Reed switch An electrical switch made of two thin strips of ferromagnetic metal, which touch when subject to a magnetic field. regenerative braking A braking scheme that returns energy to the source. regenerative circuit A circuit that employs positive feedback; can be an amplifier or an oscillator. relaxation oscillator

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Security_alarm

    Reed Switch. The hermetically sealed reed switch is a common type of two-piece sensor. This switch operates with an electrically conductive switch that is either normally open or normally closed when under the influence of a magnetic field in respect to proximity to the second piece, which contains a magnet. When the magnet moves away from the ...

  6. Pulse compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse_compression

    In radar or sonar applications, linear chirps are the most typically used signals to achieve pulse compression. The pulse being of finite length, the amplitude is a rectangle function . If the transmitted signal has a duration T {\displaystyle T} , begins at t = 0 {\displaystyle t=0} and linearly sweeps the frequency band Δ f {\displaystyle ...

  7. Constant false alarm rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant_false_alarm_rate

    However, in most fielded systems, unwanted clutter and interference sources mean that the noise level changes both spatially and temporally. In this case, a changing threshold can be used, where the threshold level is raised and lowered to maintain a constant probability of false alarm. This is known as constant false alarm rate (CFAR) detection.

  8. Radar beacon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_beacon

    When a racon receives a radar pulse, it responds with a signal on the same frequency which puts an image on the radar display. This takes the form of a short line of dots and dashes forming a Morse character radiating away from the location of the beacon on the normal plan position indicator radar display. The length of the line usually ...

  9. Radio-frequency identification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio-frequency_identification

    Radio-frequency identification (RFID) uses electromagnetic fields to automatically identify and track tags attached to objects. An RFID system consists of a tiny radio transponder called a tag, a radio receiver, and a transmitter.
