Sivers IMA is pleased to announce the release of the new RS3410X/00 radar front end. Operating at 9.5-9.975 GHz, it is intended for use in safety and security applications. RS3410X/00 is developed to provide the best possible range and reliability in difficult weather conditions.
“The 9 GHz band is available license-free in many EU countries under the Short Range Device recommendations and has been an under-utilized band so far. The RS3410 X/00 represents a new approach for Sivers IMA radar products – taking advantage of pre-defined design blocks to dramatically lower cost. By reaching a lower price point Sivers IMA will be able address new segments with potential for large volume demand” says Anders Storm, CEO of Sivers IMA.
The advent of smart homes, automated manufacturing, and intelligent infrastructure have created a need for affordable, ubiquitous sensing. Other technologies, such as passive infrared or ultrasound have partially filled this need in the past, but new levels of resolution and flexibility are being demanded by the market. In response, the RS34010X/00 integrates a high performance digital synthesizer enabling use in Doppler or FMCW mode, permitting accurate presence, speed, and distance measurement.
The RS3410X/00 radar front end is available as a compact surface-mountable module for easy assembly. Pre-series production will be available for evaluation in Q1 of 2017.
