Abstract
Laser doppler velocimetry can provide many advantages to traffic monitoring, as compared to tradiitional microwave systems. Narrower beamwidth, lower transmitted power and higher doppler frequency shift are some of them. A low-power laboratory prototype is presented. It is based on the Michelson interferometer. Measurements of working range, SNR and resolution are presented.
