CIRCUITS AND METHODS FOR DETERMINING CHIRP SIGNAL LINEARITY AND PHASE NOISE OF A FMCW RADAR

摘要

A testing device for FMCW radar includes an input for receiving a chirp signal generated by the radar. An IQ down-converter coupled to the input down-converts the chirp signal. A digitizer extracts digitized IQ signals from the down-converted chirp signal. A processor coupled to the digitizer determines at least one of frequency linearity and phase noise of the chirp signal.
