Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立雲林科技大學 === 電子與資訊工程研究所 === 94 === Continuous-wave ( CW ) radar systems are more suitable than pulsed radar systems for many applications, especially in situations where a small, lightweight radar sensor is required. A basic CW radar is the simplest radar imaginable and can be made to fit into a package commensurate with its simplicity. Methods of overcoming the simple CW radar’s basic disadvantage — no target range information and little transmitter/receiver isolation — were discussed. FM techniques were shown to help provide increased isolation and target information. Frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar uses a very low probability of intercept waveform, which is also well suited to make good use of simple solid-state transmitters. FMCW is finding application in such diverse fields as naval tactical navigation radars, smart ammunition sensors and automotive radars.Some of the strengths and weaknessesof Continuous-wave radar and Pulsed radar are considered. A new practical algorithm is proposed for multiple object detection in FM-CW radars.
