An FMCW radar system for short range surface contour mapping " (1996). Retrospective Theses and Dissertations. Paper 11546. This manuscript has been reproduced from the microfilm master. UMI films the text directly fi'om the original or copy submitted. Thus, some thesis and dissertation copies are in typewriter &ce, while others may be from any type of computer printer. The quality of this reproduction is dependent upon the quality of the copy submitted. Broken or indistinct print, colored or poor quality illustrations and photographs, print bleedthrough, substandard margins, and improper alignment can adversely a£fect reproduction. In the unlikely event that the author did not send UMI a complete manuscript and there are missing pages, these will be noted. Also, if unauthorized copyright material had to be removed, a note will indicate the deletion. sectioning the original, beginning at the upper left-hand comer and continuing from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. Each original is also photographed in one exposure and is included ui reduced form at the back of the book. Photographs included in the original manuscript have been reproduced xerographically in this copy. Higher quality 6" x 9" black and white photographic prints are available for any photographs or illustrations appearing in this copy for an additional charge. Contact UMI directly to order.

A Unique Approach to Freqeucny-modulated Continuous-wave Radar Design

Frequency-Modulated Continuous-Wave (FMCW) Radar has traditionally been used in short range applications. Conventional FMCW radar requires the use of expensive microwave mixers and low noise amplifiers. A uniquely inexpensive solution was created, using inexpensive Gunn oscillator based microwave transceiver modules that consist of 3 diodes inside of a resonant cavity. However these transceiver...

Design of FMCW Radars for Active Safety Applications

With 28.000 road fatalities in 2012 in Europe, car manufacturers, automotive electronics suppliers, and universities are working to develop new electronic systems for accident prevention and collision mitigation. In the near future, vehicle-tovehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure networks based on dedicated short-range communication (DSRC) technology will warn drivers when dangerous conditions ...

On the Sensitivity Degradation Caused by Short-Range Leakage in FMCW Radar Systems

Frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar systems suffer from permanent leakage due to their continuous operation. Especially in integrated circuits this leads to the well known issue of on-chip leakage due to limited isolation between transmit and receive circuitry. In addition, we investigate short-range (SR) leakage resulting from signal reflections of an unwanted close object located...

Short-Range Noncontact Sensors for Healthcare and Other Emerging Applications: A Review

Short-range noncontact sensors are capable of remotely detecting the precise movements of the subjects or wirelessly estimating the distance from the sensor to the subject. They find wide applications in our day lives such as noncontact vital sign detection of heart beat and respiration, sleep monitoring, occupancy sensing, and gesture sensing. In recent years, short-range noncontact sensors ar...

A Multi-beam and Multi-range Radar with Fmcw and Digital Beam Forming for Automo- Tive Applications

In this paper, we propose a multi-beam and multi-range (MBMR) radar with frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) waveform and digital beam forming (DBF) algorithm to cover a detection area of long range and narrow angle (150 m, ±10◦) as well as short range and wide angle (60 m, ±30◦) as a single 24 GHz sensor. The developed radar is highly integrated with multiple phased-array antennas, a tw...
