摘要 |
The invention relates to a method for measuring the speed of a vehicle by transmitting a wave beam directed at the vehicle, receiving a part of the wave beam reflected by the vehicle, comparing the reflected beam part with the transmitted wave beam and deriving from this comparison the speed of the vehicle, wherein during the speed measurement the position of the vehicle is also determined. A vehicle committing an offence can thus be identified unambiguously in a recording which is made after detection of the speeding offence. The speed of the vehicle can be determined from a difference in wavelength detected during the comparison between the reflected beam part and the transmitted wave beam, while the position of the vehicle is determined from a time lag detected during the comparison between the moment of transmitting and the moment of receiving the reflected beam part. The invention also relates to an apparatus for performing this method.
