Educational System to Approach Teaching of Bi-static Noise Radar

摘要

Students usually find some of the basic radar concepts difficult to comprehend without practical experiments. Experimental studies provide valuable teaching tools for almost all disciplines in general, and RF/Microwave engineering courses in particular. Simple experimental tests can facilitate the acquisition of most important concepts that students will need to use and apply as professional engineers after the graduation. Similar experimental systems have been previously developed in the field of electromagnetic teaching as [1-7]. In [1, 5] we can read the importance of the instrumentation in the radio courses curriculum and how the RF instruments can help to emphasize signal and system theory concepts to students. In [6] a cost-effective solution is implemented to design educational modules used in wireless communication courses showing a good performance. This kind of experiences allows the students the acquisition of practical skills in RF design through experimental exploration.
