1. Introduction

The HB170 miniature microwave motion sensor is an X-
Band Bi-static Doppler transceiver module. These modules
are designed for applications in movement detection and
speed measurement.

The module consists of a Dielectric Resonator Oscillator
(DRO), mixer, patch antenna array , and an added Low Noise
Amplifier (LNA) at the receiver to achieve longer detection
range.

This User Manual highlights some important points for
application with HB 7 series modules.

                                                                                       Figure1: Block Diagram
2. Mounting

Header pins can be used to connect the terminals (V1, V2, IF, GND) to the power supply and the
amplifier circuits to serve as mounting support. Other mounting methods may be used. Caution must be
taken to avoid pressure or stress being applied to the chassis of the module as it may cause performance
deterioration.

5. Transmit Frequency
The transmit frequency and power of the module is set by the factory. There is no user adjustable part in
this device.

The module is a low power radio device (LPRD) or intended radiator. Local radio communication
authority regulates use of such a device. Though user license may be exempted, type approval of
equipment or other regulation compliance may be required.

Annex 1 shows the allocated frequency in some countries.
6. Radiation Pattern
The module is to be mounted with the antenna patches facing to the desired detection zone. The user
may vary the orientation of the module to get the best coverage. The radiation patterns of the antenna
and their half power beam width (HPBW) are shown in below diagram.

7. Output Signals
Doppler shift – The IF terminal outputs a Doppler shift signal when movement is detected. The
magnitude of the Doppler Shift is proportional to the reflection of the transmitted energy and is in the
range of microvolts (µV). A high gain low frequency amplifier is usually connected to the IF terminal
in order to amplify the Doppler shift to a processable level (see Annex 2). Frequency of Doppler shift is
proportional to velocity of motion. Typical human walking generates Doppler shift below 100 Hz.
Doppler frequency can be calculated by Doppler equation in Annex 2.

The Received Signal Strength (RSS) is the measured voltage of the Doppler shift at the IF output. The
RSS figure specified in the technical data sheet is the level of a 25 Hz Doppler shift, generated from the
modulated microwave signal received at the receiver antenna, The received microwave signal is
attenuated to 93 dB below the transmit microwave signal from the transmit antenna of the same unit.

                                                                                               HB170 Users Manual




                                                                                                                V1.00
The 93dB loss is the total losses combining two ways free space loss (82.4 dB for 30 meters at 10.525
GHz), reflection loss and absorption loss of the target, as well as other losses.

This RSS figure can be viewed as an approximation of the output signal strength for a human at 15
meters away walking straight to the module at 1.28 km/hour.

Reflection of a human body is varied with the size of the body, clothing, apparels and other
environmental factors; RSS measured for two human bodies may vary by 50%.

Circuit designer must take note of the maximum and minimum Received Signal Strength (RSS)
specified in technical data sheet, when designing the amplifier. Sensitive deviation between modules
has to be considered when setting amplifier gain or alarm threshold. On-production-line gain
adjustment may be necessary if a narrow window for triggering threshold is required.

Noise - The noise figure specified in the technical data sheet is the noise measured in an Anechoic
chamber, that shields the unit-under-test from external interference, as well as reflections from surfaces.
Hence, the figure is only representing the noise generated by the internal circuit itself.

Other than noises generate from internal electronic circuit, in actual applications, other noises may be
picked up from surrounding, or other part of the electronic circuit.

Special attention has to be given to the interference picked up from fluorescent light, as the 100/120 Hz
noise is closed at the Doppler frequency generated by human movement.

On and off switching of certain devices (relay, LED, motor, etc.) may generate a high magnitude of
transient noise at the IF terminal. Careful PCB layout and time masking is necessary to prevent false
triggering.

DC Level - DC level (0.01 to 0.2 Vdc) exists at the IF terminal and its polarity can be positive and
negative. Its magnitude may vary over temperature. AC coupling is recommended for IF terminal
connection.

8. Radiation Safety
Microwave radiation from the module is well below established safety standards for general public
environment, like ANSI C95.1-1991 of USA and NRPB-G11 of United Kingdom.

9. Handling

The module has been fully tested to specifications. Upon opening, tighten or loosen the chassis will
cause performance deterioration.

The module is an electrostatic sensitive device (ESD). Precautions shall be observed for handling and
assembly.
