Abstract
The objective of this study is to evaluate the potential of a 60 GHz radar system as a roadside wildlife detection system. The system can be integrated into a delineator, allowing roadside monitoring and the possibility of warning against wildlife accidents. This system is compared to a low-cost image-resolving thermal array sensing system. IR array sensors have limited range and are highly dependent on the environment, with a maximum distance of 18 m in cold environment.
