Design of Transmitter-Receiver for FM-CW Imaging Radar at L-band

摘要

Recently, there has been a growing interest in FMCW (frequency modulated continuous wave) technology based imaging sensors for military and civilian applications. LFMCW based system has advantage of simple and cost effective processing hardware with a lower cubage than a comparable pulsed SAR. The development of low power L-band FM-CW imaging radar hardware for accurate range measurement is the main focus of this paper.
