6 CPWinterEN
Contents
Radar systems for applications in industry, transportation, medical technology, and remote sensing. This includes in particular an overview of radar systems, terminology, propagation of electromagnetic waves, kinematics of radar targets, modeling of transmit and receive power, radar waveforms, modeling of radar systems and radar signal processing. In the exercise, the contents of this lecture are consolidated by calculation examples, deepened in computer-based simulations and examples and finally applied in practical experiments with radar system hardware.
Learning outcomes
After successfully completing the module, students have an understanding of the fundamentals of radar systems.They can describe the propagation of electromagnetic waves in wireless channels in time and frequency domain. They are able to classify radar systems and their operating principles and parameters. and to model the kinematics of radar targets. Further they are able to analyse and classify radar methods, waveforms and their characteristics. They understand and apply essential steps in digital signal processing in radar systems. They are able to analyse radar systems at the system level.
Assessment
Prerequisite: • successful performance in the practical experiments during the exercise Final module examination: • Oral examination, 30-45 min. OR • Written examination, 90 min. In the first lecture it will announced, whether the examination will organized in written or oral form.
Literature (1)
- Lecture notes will be provided during the first class meeting.
