Target Velocity Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Target Velocity = (Doppler Frequency Shift*Wavelength)/2
v_t = (Δf_d*λ)/2
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Target Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Target Velocity describes the rate at which target moves toward or away from the radar.
Doppler Frequency Shift - (Measured in Hertz) - Doppler frequency shift is the change in frequency of a wave in relation to an observer who is moving relative to the wave source.
Wavelength - (Measured in Meter) - Wavelength refers to the physical length of one complete cycle of an electromagnetic wave transmitted by the radar system.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Doppler Frequency Shift: 20 Hertz --> 20 Hertz No Conversion Required
Wavelength: 0.58 Meter --> 0.58 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

v_t = (Δf_d*λ)/2 --> (20*0.58)/2

Evaluating ... ...

v_t = 5.8

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

5.8 Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

5.8 Meter per Second <-- Target Velocity

Target Velocity Formula

Target Velocity = (Doppler Frequency Shift*Wavelength)/2
v_t = (Δf_d*λ)/2

Why Should We Use Radar Technology?

The radar signal is virtually unaffected by the tank content and tank atmosphere, temperature or pressure. The measurement is not influenced by changing material characteristics such as density, dielectric properties and viscosity.

How to Calculate Target Velocity?

Target Velocity calculator uses Target Velocity = (Doppler Frequency Shift*Wavelength)/2 to calculate the Target Velocity, The Target Velocity formula is defined as the velocity of the target that is moving with doppler frequency relative to wave source. Target Velocity is denoted by v_t symbol.

How to calculate Target Velocity using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Target Velocity, enter Doppler Frequency Shift (Δf_d) & Wavelength (λ) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Target Velocity calculation can be explained with given input values -> 5.8 = (20*0.58)/2.

FAQ

What is Target Velocity?

The Target Velocity formula is defined as the velocity of the target that is moving with doppler frequency relative to wave source and is represented as v_t = (Δf_d*λ)/2 or Target Velocity = (Doppler Frequency Shift*Wavelength)/2. Doppler frequency shift is the change in frequency of a wave in relation to an observer who is moving relative to the wave source & Wavelength refers to the physical length of one complete cycle of an electromagnetic wave transmitted by the radar system.

How to calculate Target Velocity?

The Target Velocity formula is defined as the velocity of the target that is moving with doppler frequency relative to wave source is calculated using Target Velocity = (Doppler Frequency Shift*Wavelength)/2. To calculate Target Velocity, you need Doppler Frequency Shift (Δf_d) & Wavelength (λ). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Doppler Frequency Shift & Wavelength and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.
