How the Microwave Click Works

Microwave Click detects movement of objects utilising Doppler effect. When the PD-V11 microwave sensor is powered on, it starts transmitting radio waves of fixed frequency. As the waves hit a moving object they are reflected back toward PD-V11 microwave motion sensor, with their frequency changed, depending on speed and direction of object's movement.

The Doppler effect - a change in frequency of a wave for the observer and object move closer or further apart from one another. A typical example of the Doppler effect is when a vehicle with siren passes and you hear the pitch drop of the siren.

We provide a demo application for the Microwave click on LibStock, as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo application can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards with minimal change to the code depending on the
microcontroller used.

Examples Description

The application is composed of three sections :

  1. System Initialization - GPIO, UART, and MCU ADC module initialization
  2. Application Initialization - Measurement of initial reference ADC value used for comparison and movement calculation
  3. Application Task - (code snippet) Sequential operation: 
void applicationTask()
{
 char txt[ 50 ];
 uint16_t counter = 0;
 uint16_t single = 0;
 uint16_t sampler = 0;
 uint32_t sum = 0;
 uint16_t detector = 0;
// SAMPLING
 for (sampler = 0; sampler < _SAMPLES_COUNT; sampler++ )
 {
 single = ADC1_Get_Sample( 8 );
 if (single < reference)
 {
 sum += single;
 counter++;
 }
 }
 LATD = 0x00; // Turn off D port before next measurement
// CALCULATION
 if (0 != counter)
 {
 detector = sum / counter;
// REPORTING
 if ((detector + _THRESHOLD) < reference)
 {
 WordToStr( detector, txt );
 UART2_Write_Text( "rnMOVE " );
 UART2_Write_Text( txt );
 LATD = 0xFF; // Turn on D port to report movement
 Delay_1ms();
 }
 }
}

The threshold value and number of samples taken per sequence can be easy adjusted by
changing the _SAMPLES_COUNT and _THRESHOLD constants.

Setting the samples count to values greater than 500 may slow down your application. The optimal value for this kind of application is 100.

The optimal threshold value depends on the resolution of the MCU's internal ADC module. A small threshold will make the application more sensitive and extend the range of the detection.

This example demonstrates how the click board™ can detect human movement up to 1,5m.

Note that this is a simple demonstration - a more accurate movement detection requires real digital signal processing. The board used for this demo must be still during the initialization process (power on).

The full application code, and ready to use projects can be found on LibStock.

Additional Notes and Information

Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART click, USB UART 2 click or RS232 click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. The terminal available in all MikroElektronika compilers, or any other terminal application of your choice, can be used to read the message.
