The invention relates to a method for detecting the passage by a vehicle of a determined point for monitoring on a road, wherein from a remotely situated location a radar beam is transmitted continuously to the point for monitoring, reflections from the transmitted radar beam are received at the remotely situated location, and it is determined from the received reflections that the vehicle is passing the point for monitoring. The radar beam can herein be transmitted at an acute angle to the travel direction of the passing vehicle. The detection can be used to activate a red-light camera, to measure the speed of the vehicle or measure the traffic intensity, without sensors, for instance induction loops, having to be arranged in the road for this purpose. The invention further relates to a system for performing this method.
A method for detecting the passage of a determined point by a vehicle for monitoring a road, comprising transmitting substantially continuously from a remotely situated location to at least one radar beam to the point for monitoring, receiving reflections from at least one transmitted radar beam at the remotely situated location, and determining from the received reflections that the vehicle is passing the point for monitoring.
A detection system for detecting the passage of a determined point by a vehicle for monitoring on a road, comprising a transmitting and receiving device disposed at a remote location for:
