Sunken Road and Roadside Walls
When vertical surfaces reflecting microwaves (e.g., dense chain link fences or 
retaining walls of a sunken roadway) are present, multi-path reflections from large 
vehicles in close lanes cause additional false (ghost) detection in farther detection 
zones.
Figure 2-10: False Target Generated by Fence Or Wall
To avoid this problem install the Autoscope RTMS Sx-300 higher and increase the 
elevation angle to detect the far lanes of traffic excluding the nearest lanes, as shown 
on the right in 
Installing Autoscope RTMS Sx-300 on Sign Structures
The installation of the Autoscope RTMS Sx-300 on Message Sign structures is 
acceptable only if the Autoscope RTMS Sx-300 is mounted to be offset from the 
overhead span of the structure. Structures can reflect the microwave signal and distort 
the accuracy of detection. Some structures such as DMS units have very wide, flat 
metal bottoms to the structure that are similar in nature to bridges, these type can 
cause more interference than other lattice work type structures and may require 
consultation with Autoscope RTMS Sx-300 Technical Support.
The best way to mount the Autoscope RTMS Sx-300 is to place a horizontal mast arm 
or pipe approximately 1.3 m (4 ft) away from the structure (1.8-2.4 m [6-8 ft] if 
DMS), ideally on the back of the structure away from any lighting or signs. Ensure the 
detector is aimed perpendicular to the traffic flow.
