How does a CW radar work?

CW radar can measure the instantaneous rate-of-change in the target’s range. This is accomplished by a direct measurement of the Doppler shift of the returned signal . The Doppler shift is a change in the frequency of the electromagnetic wave caused by motion of the transmitter, target or both.

What is a mmWave radar?

Millimeter wave (mmWave) is a special class of radar technology that uses short- wavelength electromagnetic waves . Radar systems transmit electromagnetic wave signals that objects in their path then reflect. By capturing the reflected signal, a radar system can determine the range, velocity and angle of the objects.
