Description

The CAR28F utilizes Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radar technology in the 24GHz ISM band. By analyzing the frequency shift between the transmitted signal and the reflected echo, it calculates precise range, radial velocity, and azimuth angle for multiple targets. This non-contact sensing method provides reliable data unaffected by lighting conditions, dust, or light rain.

Engineered for automotive and industrial mobility applications, the module features a robust IP66-rated housing that protects against dust ingress and water jets. Its low power draw and standard 12V DC supply voltage make it suitable for integration into vehicle electrical systems, autonomous guided vehicles (AGVs), and robotic platforms requiring collision avoidance and situational awareness.

Key Features

  • 24GHz FMCW Radar Core: Delivers high-resolution detection of range, velocity, and angle with excellent clutter rejection.
  • Multi-Target Tracking: Processes and outputs data for up to 8 distinct moving objects simultaneously.
  • Robust Environmental Sealing: IP66 rating ensures reliable performance in outdoor, dusty, or wet conditions typical of vehicle mounting.
  • CAN Bus Communication: Standard automotive protocol interface simplifies integration with vehicle networks and industrial PLCs.
  • Optimized for Low-Speed Vehicles: Provides critical data for Forward Collision Warning (FCW) and Rear Collision Warning (RCW) systems.
  • Compact and Low-Power Design: Small footprint and 1.65W typical power consumption enable flexible mounting on various platforms.

Applications

  • Automotive Safety Systems: Forward Collision Warning (FCW) and Rear Collision Warning (RCW) for commercial vehicles, buses, and low-speed electric vehicles.
  • Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) & AGVs: Obstacle detection, people tracking, and navigation assistance in warehouse and factory environments.
  • Industrial Vehicle Perception: Situational awareness for forklifts, mining vehicles, and agricultural machinery.
  • Multi-Sensor Fusion Platforms: Providing radar-based object data to complement LiDAR and camera systems in advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS).
  • Perimeter Security & Access Control: Motion detection and tracking for gate automation and secure area monitoring.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the communication interface of the CAR28F radar, and how do I connect it to my system?

The CAR28F outputs target data via a CAN bus interface. You will need a CAN controller (like the included CAN box) to interpret the messages. Connect the supplied radar harness to the module's port and the CAN box harness to your vehicle's CAN network or a USB-CAN adapter for development with a PC.

What is the maximum detection range and what factors can affect it?

The specified maximum detection range is 30 meters for typical targets. Actual range can be reduced by environmental factors such as heavy rain, snow, or the radar cross-section (size and material) of the target. The module performs best for detecting vehicles and large objects within its field of view.

Can this radar module operate outdoors and in all weather conditions?

Yes, the IP66 rating means it is dust-tight and protected against powerful water jets, making it suitable for outdoor vehicle mounting. However, performance may degrade in extreme weather conditions like torrential downpours or when the radar lens is obscured by mud or ice. Regular cleaning of the radome is recommended.

What power supply does the CAR28F require, and what is its power consumption?

The module requires a 12V DC power supply, which is typical for automotive systems. Its power consumption is approximately 1.65 Watts. Ensure your vehicle's electrical system or external power adapter can provide stable 12V power within the specified tolerance (e.g., 11-16V).

How many targets can this radar track, and what data is provided for each?

The CAR28F can track up to 8 moving targets simultaneously. For each target, the radar provides key parameters including distance (range), radial velocity (speed relative to the radar), and azimuth angle (lateral position). This data is packaged into CAN messages for your system to process.
