Benefits or advantages of FMCW Radar ➨It uses low power for transmission . This can be supplied by many solid state devices such as magnetron, BWO, reflex klystron etc. ➨The super-heterodyne based architecture delivers good sensitivity and stability. ➨It offers higher bandwidth compare to CW radar.
Read moreWhat’s the difference between FMCW and CW radars?
If CW Doppler Radar uses the Frequency Modulation, then that Radar is called FMCW Doppler Radar or simply, FMCW Radar . It is also called Continuous Wave Frequency Modulated Radar or CWFM Radar. It measures not only the speed of the target but also the distance of the target from the Radar.
Read moreWhat is FMCW used for?
Radar systems measure the time of flight from when a transmitted signal leaves the radar, hits a reflecting target and returns to the radar .
Read moreWhat is the principle of FMCW radar?
The radar principle used is FMCW (Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave). The FMCW-radar transmits a high frequency signal whose frequency increases linearly during the measurement phase (called the frequency sweep) . The signal is emitted, reflected from the measuring surface and received with a time delay, t.
Read moreWhat is target acquisition radar?
The AN/PPS-5C Manportable Surveillance and Target Acquisition Radar (MSTAR) is a highly versatile low-power, high-performance ground surveillance radar . The MSTAR provides wide-area surveillance to a maximum range of 42 km, day or night and in all weather conditions.
Read moreWhat does target acquisition?
Target acquisition is the detection and identification of the location of a target in sufficient detail to permit the effective employment of lethal and non-lethal means .
