Abstract
In a Doppler radar system for measuring the velocity of a vehicle, such as an automobile, in order to lessen interference with external electric wave appliances, such as radios and televisions, caused by transmitting microwaves, one of the higher harmonics generated from a mixer diode driven by the fundamental waves of a local oscillator is selected by a filter for transmission and is used as the transmission output wave, whereby the power of the transmission waves is remarkably reduced in comparison with the mixer driving power.
