1. General
The BR-1022 radar can be used to measure the radial velocity of any moving object located in the
radar beam coverage. The output of the radar is an analog signal with a frequency and amplitude
proportional to the radial velocity and distance of the moving object.

3. Specifications
Description Specification
Nominal Frequency 10.525 GHz
Nominal Transmitting Power 2.0 W – 0.1 W, selectable
Antenna Gain 27 dBi (nominal)
Transmitter Stability ±5 ppm
Beamwidth 4° x 4°
Dimension (without yoke) 30.75” x 15.25” x 3.00”
4. Installation
The BR-1022 is mounted on a yoke that has a 3/8”-16 hole for installation on a tripod. The yoke
provides the flexibility for radar alignment in both azimuth and elevation.
5. Operation
The BR-1022 is powered on 120/240 VAC, 50-60 Hz using a conventionnal power cord for
connection in standard power outlet. It is interfaced to a processing unit using a single four-wire
cable equipped with military connectors. This cable is used to carry out the radar Doppler signal
to the processing unit and the antenna transmission control. You should connect your radar cable
from this connector to the appropiate radar input on your processing unit.
Based on limits specified by the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) on
Radio Frequency (RF) emissions in a general population environment,
continued exposure to radiation should be avoided within 4.0 meter in front of
the radar. Radiation levels outside this region fall within regulations of 1
mW/cm

and are not considered safety hazards. When setting up the antenna,
special care should be taken to avoid situations where the antenna radiates
towards individuals. The antenna should be positioned such that bystanders are
located behind the antenna. During antenna setup, the antenna power cord
should be unplugged to avoid accidental hazardous exposures to radiations.
Always turn the antenna transmitter off during periods of inactivity. Direct
visual contact with the radar when transmitting should be avoided at all times.
