IVS-947 Radar Sensor

The IVS-947 is a 24 GHz radar sensor frontend from InnoSenT GmbH, which is distinguished by advanced MMIC Design. The FMCW version measures the velocity and distance of moving objects. Additionally, it recognizes their presence or absence and their movement direction. The coverage area is defined for mid-range traffic detection.

The IVS-947 comes as VCO to allow frequency modulation and supports CW, FSK, and FMCW modules. This allows constant distance measurement and increases the counting accuracy. This design includes an RF prescaler for transmit-frequency reference. It also has an integrated IF amplifier to intensify the radar signals.

The product offers better energy efficiency and more flexibility in the application opportunities. The IVS-947 is primarily used for traffic detection. It can be found in traffic speed displays beside the streets or is used in vehicle counting systems. The IVS-947 can be adjusted in frequency and is fit for worldwide use.

Also available is a CW version: The IPS-937 only provides movement recognition, speed, and direction information of the objects.
