    Uav Detection and Ranging With 77-81 Ghz Fmcw Radar
    (Ieee, 2022) Doganay, Bengisu; Arslan, Mustafa; Demir, Efe Can; Coruk, Remziye Busra; Gokdogan, Bengisu Yalcinkaya; Aydin, Elif
    In this study, detection of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), determination of radar cross-section (RCS) values, and range estimation were performed using a commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) millimeter-wave Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (mmWave FMCW) radar system in the 77-81 GHz frequency band. The measurements were carried out in a laboratory environment using a single transceiver antenna without the need for an anechoic chamber. RCS values of different vertically and horizontally positioned UAVs were measured experimentally along the 360 degrees aspect angle, and the simulated results obtained from computational tool were compared with the experimental results. The measurement and simulation results, together with the range estimation, matched with high accuracy.

    Analysis of Measurement Instrumentation Delay in Modular Experimental Radar at C Band
    (Ieee, 2018) Abdulrazigh, Mahfoud Y. A.; Uzundurukan, Emre; Kara, Ali
    Unlike pulsed radars, Frequency-Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radar emits continuously very low power levels with the same signal to noise ratio (SNR) of an equivalent pulsed radar. FMCW can measure range and speed of the target. In modular design of such radar, time delay is experienced due to modular components such as low-noise amplifiers (LNA), antennas and, especially, cables. This time delay causes frequency shifts in the measured beat frequency resulting a range measurement error. Therefore, this time delay has to be studied for accuracy of measurements. In this study, experimental results of range measurement errors of a FMCW radar operating at C band are presented. Considering time delay of modular components, a range error of approximately 0.1m was obtained within a range of 10m.

    A Modular Fmcw Radar Rf Front End Design:simulation and Implementation
    (Ieee, 2014) Dagdeviren, Birkan; Kapusuz, Kamil Yavuz; Kara, Ali
    In this work, simulations and preliminary measurement results of an S-band FMCW radar is presented. A commercial simulation tool (AWR-VSS) has been used at system level design stage of the radar. The simulation tool provides all functions regarding with transmitter, target and receiving blocks, and it finally feeds echo signals to the digital processing block implemented in MATLAB. The target range and velocity have been derived for simple target scenario in MATLAB. Then, a modular RF front end of the radar has been designed using commercial of the shelf (COTS) components. The radar system has been proved to be working in indoor environment using measurement equipment. Moreover, design of horn antennas for transmitting and reception blocks have been demonstrated Real time signal processing functions will be developed at the next stage.
