Clutter-Free Localization by Harmonic Radar at 60/120 GHz

Accurate range measurements near other reflectors, known as clutter, can be challenging for conventional FMCW radars, especially when the target of interest has a small radar cross-section. Even if the distance between different reflectors is large enough, it is not always clear which reflector is the target of interest in cluttered radar scenarios. These challenges can be addressed by placing a harmonic reflector, the tag, on the target of interest.

The tag, which consists of antennas and a nonlinear device, responds with an impulse response at a harmonic frequency that is distinct from the passive environment with its linear characteristics. With a receiver also operating at the appropriate harmonic frequency, only the tag's response is converted to the intermediate frequency.

Speaker:

M. Sc. Steffen Hansen

Themes:

This presentation will provide a brief introduction to the principles of harmonic radar and demonstrate the benefits and challenges of this technology. The possibilities of a compact system near 60/120 GHz in a SiGe technology will be shown.

Target Group:

Customers, partners and interested parties from industry, politics, science and society

Specialists and managers, project managers and decision makers

Search / advanced search of the idw archives
Combination of search terms

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.

Brackets

You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).

Phrases

Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.

Selection criteria

You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).

If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
