Automated FMCW Radar Experimental Platform

I258 the study of frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar, it is difficult to complete an experiment with application-specific radars, since adapting their parameters bring much cost and time-consuming work. To address this problem, this paper presents an efficient and automated FMCW radar experimental platform. As a control center, a computer is integrated with a programmable transmitter, a programmable receiver and RF components in the platform. This platform can flexibly configure the parameters of the FMCW signal and realize automatic transmission, reception and signal processing in an automated and efficient way. The effectiveness of the platform is demonstrated by a laboratory experiment.
