Summary:This paper introduces a new vehicle detection, tracking, and classification system that utilizes a 35 GHz FMCW radar. The system incorporates a monolithic microwave integrated circuit to replace traditional transmitting and receiving components, which reduces the size, power consumption, and overall cost of the radar. Additionally, a phase-locked loop frequency synthesis scheme is used to further optimize the system. The result is a cost-effective radar system that costs less than ten dollars. This paper not only explores a wide range of vehicle detection, tracking, and classification algorithms, but also optimizes them to run seamlessly on micro-controllers with low power consumption, low computational complexity, and low cost. This radar is capable of measuring the speed, distance, and traffic volume of multiple vehicles simultaneously - making it a versatile and valuable addition to any traffic monitoring system.
