This project focuses on developing a wireless non-optical solution for measuring the rotation of objects. The solution to this problem is approached through the use on antenna and the polarisation effect that antenna are subject to.

High-Level Plan

  • Phase 1 :
    • Generating the ISM frequency by using the voltage control oscillator.
  • Phase 2 :
    • Using the transceiver to send the signal.
    • The absorber is attached to the target object.
    • Receiving the reflected signal from absorber.
  • Phase 3 :
    • Separating the received signal from the transmitted signal through using of bidirectional-coupler or crosstalk-reduced receiver.
  • Phase 4 :
    • Using the power of the separated received signal to calculate the rotation speed of the target object.
