Description

The UAV-R22-1 obstacle avoidance radar utilizes Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) technology in the 77–81GHz band. Its 2T4R MIMO antenna configuration enables precise measurement of target distance, relative speed, and azimuth angle within a ±15° field of view. The integrated DSP+ARM dual-core architecture handles signal processing, target detection, and tracking algorithms on-chip, outputting processed data via UART.

Engineered for demanding applications, the sensor operates across an extended temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and is sealed to an IP67 standard for dust and water resistance. Its low power consumption and compact form factor make it ideal for integration into battery-powered autonomous systems requiring reliable environmental perception.

Key Features

  • High-frequency 77–81GHz operation provides excellent range resolution and sensitivity to small or moving objects.
  • Advanced 2-transmit, 4-receive (2T4R) MIMO antenna design for accurate angular detection and tracking.
  • Single-chip DSP+ARM processor performs real-time signal processing and target tracking internally.
  • IP67 waterproof and dustproof rating ensures durability in outdoor, agricultural, and industrial settings.
  • Low-power design with typical consumption under 3W, suitable for mobile and UAV platforms.
  • UART serial interface with configurable baud rates simplifies communication with host controllers.
  • Wide operating temperature range (-40°C to +85°C) guarantees performance in extreme climates.
  • Compact, lightweight mechanical package facilitates easy mounting and integration.

Applications

  • Obstacle detection and avoidance for commercial drones, agricultural UAVs, and delivery robots.
  • Collision prevention and navigation aid for autonomous guided vehicles (AGVs) and mobile robots.
  • Perimeter monitoring and intrusion detection for security and surveillance systems.
  • Speed and trajectory measurement of moving objects in industrial automation and traffic monitoring.
  • Environmental sensing for robotics operating in challenging outdoor or unstructured environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the communication protocol and how do I interface with the UAV-R22-1 radar?

The sensor communicates via a standard UART (serial) interface. It uses a default baud rate of 115200bps. You connect the device's TX, RX, power, and ground pins to your host controller (e.g., flight computer, Raspberry Pi, or microcontroller) to receive real-time packets containing target distance, speed, and angle data.

What is the effective detection range and field of view for this radar?

The UAV-R22-1 has a configurable detection range from a minimum of 1.5 meters up to a maximum of 27 meters. Its azimuth (horizontal) field of view is ±15 degrees from the centerline, provided by its 2T4R MIMO antenna array which enables accurate angular resolution of detected obstacles.

Is this sensor suitable for outdoor use on drones?

Yes, it is specifically designed for harsh environments. With an IP67 ingress protection rating, it is fully dust-tight and can withstand temporary immersion in water. Its operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C ensures reliable performance in extreme weather conditions typical of outdoor drone operations.

What power supply does the UAV-R22-1 radar module require?

The module typically operates on a 5V DC supply. Its power consumption is rated at approximately 3W under normal operating conditions. Ensure your system's power source can provide stable 5V power with sufficient current capacity to support this draw, especially in mobile battery-powered applications.
