Introduction
2.1. Definitions
Table 3: Definitions
Term
Definition
Active grid
Sensing area of a sensor. The active grid measures the range of detected
objects and must be centered on the zones that need to be monitored. It is
represented by an overlay of the live video window (Traffic configuration
only).
Amplitude
Measure of the signal strength.
AR
Anti-reflective
Area of interest
The area that needs to be monitored.
Camera
The camera in the sensor that provides video and images used for viewing
the detection area (area of interest).
Channel
Synonym of “segment”. See the definition of the word segment.
Crosstalk
Phenomenon by which a signal transmitted in one segment creates an
undesired effect in an adjacent segment.
Depth of the
detection zone
Distance along the y axis (road) within which the sensor will detect a
vehicle.
Detection
Object detected in one segment.
Detections include at least the following data: Segment identification,
distance measurement, and the intensity of the backscattered light of the
object.
FOV
Field of View.
Opening angle
The angle of the detection zone.
Time of Flight
Refer to section 2.2 Underlying Principles and LiDAR Fundamentals for
more details.
Segment
A segment is defined by a horizontal index in the FOV. Synonym of
“channel”.
