Abstract

This thesis consists in the design of a new homodyne radar transceiver to be used in the context of automatic doors. The work focuses on the continuous wave mode (CW) which allows speed measurements, while the frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) – which allows range and speed measurements – was developed in a more theoretical way. The central component of this work is a new radar chip developed by Infineon (BGT24LTR22), working in the frequency band from 24GHz to 24.25GHz. It provides analog building blocks for radar applications and fea- tures two transmitting ports as well as two receiving ports. The first phase of this work concerns the antennas : three different types of patch antennas were designed with CST (either 4X1 or 3X1 arrays) with radiation patterns compatible with the automatic door market (elevation beamwidth of 60°). The EIRP was measured as 9.8dBm, 7.3dBm and 6.5dBm for the respective designs. The second phase deals with the transceiver’s architecture and its implementation on a printed circuit board, with Altium. Three different transceivers were designed, each one featuring one patch an- tenna type. The third phase includes the software development with Eclipse IDE, software which is meant to be embedded in an external acquisition board to sample the radar chip output signals. The processing of these signals with Matlab includes a Constant False Alarm Rate algorithm. Dif- ferent tests are performed on the transceivers in the CW mode. Signal-to-noise ratios of 21dB, 18dB and 16dB were respectively measured for each transceiver design. The detection of people in motion is validated with a speed resolution of 0.5km/h. Taking advantage of the MIMO configu- ration (two TX antennas and two RX antennas), it is possible to determine the angle of arrival of detected people. Only one TX antenna was used, because large transient responses were observed when switching between both. Nevertheless, with two RX antennas, we finally demonstrated the ability of the transceivers to separate people at different speeds with an angular precision of 30°, and to reject the parallel flow of people who do not wish the door to open.

Abstract

In recent years, microwave sensing and imaging have acquired an ever-growing importance in several applicative fields, such as non-destructive evaluations in industry and civil engineering, subsurface prospection, security, and biomedical imaging. Indeed, microwave techniques allow, in principle, for information to be obtained directly regarding the physical parameters of the inspected targets (dielectric properties, shape, etc.) by using safe electromagnetic radiations and cost-effective systems. Consequently, a great deal of research activity has recently been devoted to the development of efficient/reliable measurement systems, which are effective data processing algorithms that can be used to solve the underlying electromagnetic inverse scattering problem, and efficient forward solvers to model electromagnetic interactions. Within this framework, this Special Issue aims to provide some insights into recent microwave sensing and imaging systems and techniques.

Abstract

The aim of this Printed Edition of Special Issue entitled "Recent Advancements in Radar Imaging and Sensing Technology” was to gather the latest research results in the area of modern radar technology using active and/or radar imaging sensing techniques in different applications, including both military use and a broad spectrum of civilian applications. As a result, the 19 papers that have been published highlighted a variety of topics related to modern radar imaging and microwave sensing technology. The sequence of articles included in the Printed Edition of Special Issue dealt with wide aspects of different applications of radar imaging and sensing technology in the area of topics including high-resolution radar imaging, novel Synthetic Apertura Radar (SAR) and Inverse SAR (ISAR) imaging techniques, passive radar imaging technology, modern civilian applications of using radar technology for sensing, multiply-input multiply-output (MIMO) SAR imaging, tomography imaging, among others.
