Signal processing

The signal processing method used by the radar detector.

Initially, inexpensive radar detectors used analogue processing units, digital ones were installed in advanced equipment, and digital-analogue "hybrids" were a compromise option. However, today, thanks to the development and cheapening of technologies, the vast majority of models use digital processing — it is the most accurate and provides the most opportunities.

Current consumption

The current nominally consumed by the radar detector during operation. Usually, with a regular connection to the cigarette lighter socket with the engine running, this parameter does not play a special role — even the most advanced models do not “eat” so much that this noticeably affects the operation of the on-board network. In fact, current consumption data may be useful only in some specific situations — for example, battery operation.
