| Summary: | With the increasing awareness and usefulness of surveillance systems in Unmanned Aerial
Vehicles (UAV) and radar systems it is seen as a necessary field of investment in most
military and intelligence departments. The most widely used radar application in the industry
would be the Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) system as the amount of advantages it can
provide outweigh normal conventional beam scanning radars. A beneficial result of using a
SAR system would be its ability to produce high resolution 2D imaging of strips of lands or
targets even under different weather conditions, which sparked the interest of this final year
project. In this report the building blocks and functionality of each component which forms
up the entire Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radar system would be
discussed and explained as it is the fundamental system to be built up first before adding on
the SAR features for 2D imagery processing. |
