摘要:
An ultra high frequency transceiver which transmits a modulated carrier wave and mixes a received signal with a locally generated signal to produce an intermediate frequency signal is tested by using the same transmitter as used during normal transceiver operation and by modulating the carrier with a wave having sudden transitions. A portion of the transmitted wave is reflected back to a receiver segment of the transmitter to produce an i.f. signal that is detected by a demodulator. Each transition causes the demodulator to detect a pulse signal. In response to the pulse signal being detected and not being detected during a testing interval, indications are derived to signal that the transceiver is and is not operating properly, respectively.
摘要:
A vehicle speed sensing apparatus with means for checking its operation comprises a Doppler radar unit for producing a Doppler signal related to a vehicle speed and producing a speed signal from the Doppler signal, a first section for extracting low frequency components in the Doppler signal and a second section connected with the first section for producing an operation check signal. The extracted low frequency components correspond to vertical motion of the vehicle and are considerably lower than a Doppler signal frequency which corresponds to a minimum vehicle speed. If these low frequency components corresponding to vertical motion are not present, it is an indication that the speed sensing system is not operating properly.
