Radar Systems
Simple, yet powerful - Software Defined Radar
What kind of RADAR does PrecisionWave produce?
It started out with a simple FMCW radar for counting birts in the sky up to a height of 1km. We have since evolved and can offer customized RADAR solutions with our modular hardware and the highly versatile radar processing realtime DSP engine. We have taken software defined radio (SDR) and coined the name software defined radar.
Options
We have several radar frontends available for use with our embedded software defined radio platform. Currently we can offer a selection of wideband IQ daughterboards (1x1 wideband), highly integrated FMCW- and LO-mixers modules, High-stability and low-noise local oscillators.
- FMCW and arbitrary waveforms
- TX Frequency range: 8200-9600 MHz and 9200-10600 MHz
- Output power: 33 dBm
- Bandwidth of 150 MHz
- TX waveform loadable from linux user space
- RX baseband streaming interface
- FPGA radar coprocessor for realtime waveform adaptation and correlation calculation
- Real-time adaptation of radar parameters such as PRF, chirp interleave mode, carrier etc.
- IQ Wideband
- RX bandwidth up to 300 MHz
- TX Frequency range: 8000-12000 MHz
- Output power: 10 mW
- TX waveform loadable from linux user space
- RX baseband streaming interface
- FPGA radar coprocessor for realtime waveform adaptation and correlation calculation
- Real-time adaptation of radar parameters such as PRF, chirp interleave mode, carrier etc.
