Abstract
A transceiver assembly is provided for use in a Doppler-based traffic radar system for determining the speed of at least one target. The transceiver assembly includes a cover for receiving therein at least some of the component parts of the transceiver assembly. In other words, the cover is positioned over the component parts of the transceiver assembly which are enclosed by a cap removably attached to the cover. A conical antenna horn and turnstile waveguide cavities are formed from a unitary material. The circuitry associated with the transceiver assembly is modularized such that the circuitry may be removed from the transceiver assembly, or more specifically separated from the microwave components of the transceiver assembly, for testing.
