RADAR BASED SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETECTION OF AN OBJECT AND GENERATION OF PLOTS HOLDING RADIAL VELOCITY DATA, AND SYSTEM FOR DETECTION AND CLASSIFICATION OF UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLES, UAVS

摘要

A Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave, FMCW, radar system that includes one or more antennas configured to transmit and receive FMCW radar wave signals for scanning for objects within a full circular detection coverage range, and processing circuitry configured to provide scan data based on transmitted and received FMCW radar signals and azimuth position of the antenna(s). The processing circuitry is configured to generate first type radar plots that holds range, radial velocity and return energy data for one or more detected objects, and second type radar plots that holds azimuth, range and return energy data for one or more detected objects. The processing circuitry is also configured to generate full data type radar plots by combining first and second type radar plots having corresponding range data, whereby each full data type radar plot holds azimuth, range, radial velocity and return energy data for one or more detected objects.
