The objective of this course is to introduce the fundamentals of radar signals and systems.
How radar works. Radar equations and radar receivers. CW and FM radars, pulsed and MTI radars. Search and tracking radars. Analysis of radar systems: channel, antennas, transmitter and receiver structures. Contemporary subjects for radar systems.
| 1. | To understand the basic transmitter and receiver structures of a radar unit with their operations. |
| 2. | To derive the basic radar equations including receiver noise |
| 3. | To define the range and velocity umbiguities, to compare different radar operation modes such as pulsed doppler and MTI |
| 4. | Gaining the ability to research and report on a term project given about radar |
| 5. | Being able to present the term project effectively in front of the class and answer questions |
