摘要: Frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) are nowadays frequently exploited for producing electro-magnetic images of the earth surface. In this paper, we present first ground moving target indication (GMTI) results of the 2016 campaign with the FMCW airborne system MIRANDA-35, and quantify the overall performances. More precisely, two specific operating modes, namely the along-track interferometry (ATI) and exo-clutter processing (EXO), are discussed in more detail. The system proved to be capable of providing GMTI products with reliable detection rates and acceptable false alarm rates.

Imaging for Small UAV-Borne FMCW SAR
摘要: Unmanned aerial vehicle borne frequency modulated continuous wave synthetic aperture radars are attracting more and more attention due to their low cost and ?exible operation capacity, including the ability to capture images at different elevation angles for precise target identi?cation. However, small unmanned aerial vehicles suffer from large trajectory deviation and severe range-azimuth coupling due to their simple navigational control and susceptibility to air turbulence. In this paper, we utilize the squint minimization technique to reduce this coupling while simultaneously eliminating intra-pulse motion-induced effects with an additional spectrum scaling. After which, the modi?ed range doppler algorithm is derived for second order range compression and block-wise range cell migration correction. Raw data-based motion compensation is carried out with a doppler tracker. Squinted azimuth dependent phase gradient algorithm is employed to deal with azimuth dependent parameters and inexact deramping, with minimum entropy-based autofocusing algorithms. Finally, azimuth nonlinear chirp scaling is used for azimuth compression. Simulation and real data experiment results presented verify the effectiveness of the above signal processing approach.

[IEEE 2018 IEEE Asian Solid-State Circuits Conference (A-SSCC) - Tainan, Taiwan (2018.11.5-2018.11.7)] 2018 IEEE Asian Solid-State Circuits Conference (A-SSCC) - A CMOS 76-81 GHz 2TX 3RX FMCW Radar Transceiver Based on Mixed-Mode PLL Chirp Generator
摘要: A fully integrated 76-81 GHz frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) radar transceiver (TRX) in 65nm CMOS is presented. Two transmitters (TXs) and three receivers (RXs) are integrated for MIMO processing. A 38.5 GHz mixed-mode PLL with reconfigurable loop bandwidth and frequency doubling scheme are employed to generate the reconfigurable FMCW chirp waveforms. Passive voltage-mode down-conversion is utilized to improve the RX linearity against TX leakage. A bottom-switching PA is proposed to realize the Bi-Phase modulation, and the magnetically-coupled resonator technique is used to effectively expand the link bandwidth. Measurement results show that the FMCW TRX could generate reconfigurable chirps with the bandwidth from 250 MHz to 4 GHz and the period from 600 us to 10 ms. The root-mean-square (RMS) frequency error is less than 251 kHz. The TX maximum output power is 13.4 dBm and is adjustable within 3 dB by reconfiguring its LDO output voltage. The RX achieves 15.3 dB noise figure and -8.5 dBm RF input-referred PldB. Real-time experiments are carried out using the proposed TRX chip, in which the measured average distance error is 10 cm. The overall power consumption is 921mW with 2-TXs and 3-RXs powered on.

Leakage Mitigation in Heterodyne FMCW Radar for Small Drone Detection With Stationary Point Concentration Technique
摘要: To prevent potential hazards posed by fast-evolving drones, it is of importance to develop a radar system for drone detection. Frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radars are widely used for that purpose. Heterodyne architectures are preferred for them to mitigate dc offset errors. Having said that, FMCW radars suffer from permanent leakage from the transmitter into the receiver. The leakage phase noise raises the total noise floor and limits the radar sensitivity. Here, we propose a stationary point concentration (SPC) technique in order to overcome the challenges. The SPC technique concentrates the leakage phase noise on a stationary point to alleviate the impact of the noise. The technique can be realized using digital signal processing without additional hardware. The results show that the proposed technique significantly lowers the noise floor.

[IEEE 2018 10th International Conference on Wireless Communications and Signal Processing (WCSP) - Hangzhou (2018.10.18-2018.10.20)] 2018 10th International Conference on Wireless Communications and Signal Processing (WCSP) - Dynamic Hand Gesture Recognition Using FMCW Radar Sensor for Driving Assistance
摘要: Dynamic hand gesture recognition is very important for human-computer interaction. In vehicles, hand gesture recognition can be used as the driver's auxiliary system to achieve remote control of the instrument. To a certain extent, this system can avoid physical buttons and touch screens causing interference to the driver. In this paper, we describe a driver-assisted dynamic gesture recognition system to classify nine hand gestures based on micro-Doppler signatures obtained by 77GHz FMCW radar using a convolutional neural network (CNN). We further explore the changes in the accuracy of same gestures in a variety of experimental scenarios to help optimize the robustness of the system.

A 65 nm 19.1-to-20.4 GHz Sigma-Delta Fractional-N Frequency Synthesizer with Two-Point Modulation for FMCW Radar Applications
摘要: A 19.1-to-20.4 GHz sigma-delta fractional-N frequency synthesizer with two-point modulation (TPM) for frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar applications is presented. The FMCW synthesizer proposes a digital and voltage controlled oscillator (D/VCO) with large continuous frequency tuning range and small digital controlled oscillator (DCO) gain variation to support TPM. By using TPM technique, it avoids the correlation between loop bandwidth and chirp slope, which is beneficial to fast chirp, phase noise and linearity. The start frequency, bandwidth and slope of the FMCW signal are all reconfigurable independently. The FMCW synthesizer achieves a measured phase noise of ?93.32 dBc/Hz at 1MHz offset from a 19.25 GHz carrier and less than 10 μs locking time. The root-mean-square (RMS) frequency error is only 112 kHz with 94 kHz/μs chirp slope, and 761 kHz with a fast slope of 9.725 MHz/μs respectively. Implemented in 65 nm CMOS process, the synthesizer consumes 74.3 mW with output buffer.

Method to improve degraded range resolution due to non-ideal factors in FMCW radar
摘要: This paper reports a method to improve a degraded range resolution for FMCW radar. The proposed post-processing method can achieve an improved range resolution without increasing a signal bandwidth by eliminating factors that can degrade the range resolution based on the non-negative least-squares method. For an FMCW radar adopting the post-processing method with the center frequency of 76.5 GHz and the signal bandwidth of 200 MHz, simulation results show that the degraded range resolution of 160 cm is improved to 70 cm, and measurements show that two corner reflectors with the radar cross section of 10 dBsm located at 70 cm range intervals can be distinguished.

[IEEE 2018 China International SAR Symposium (CISS) - Shanghai (2018.10.10-2018.10.12)] 2018 China International SAR Symposium (CISS) - Two Dimensional Image Formation of Interrupted FMCW SAR Through Spectral Analysis
摘要: Most of spaceborne Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) systems are based on pulsed mode of operation. Such systems are quite expensive and large sized. Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) based SAR is a light weight and less expensive solution, but the disadvantage is that it requires two antennas – one for transmit and other for receive. Interrupted-FMCW is a recently proposed idea for spaceborne SAR that uses a single antenna for transmission and reception. The main problem of this approach is discontinuity of data in azimuth. This paper proposes a two-dimensional image formation algorithm that uses spectral analysis methods for processing of interrupted-FMCW SAR data. The algorithm has been tested on simulated point target data as well as on a real FMCW data, and the results have been discussed.

A High-Resolution 220-GHz Ultra-Wideband Fully Integrated ISAR Imaging System
摘要: In this paper, an ultra-wideband fully integrated imaging radar at sub-terahertz (sub-THz) frequencies is presented, which demonstrates a fine lateral resolution without using any focal lens/mirror. We have achieved a lateral resolution of 2 mm for an object at 23-cm distance as well as a range resolution of 2.7 mm. To achieve the decent range resolution, in a frequency modulation continuous wave radar configuration, a state-of-the-art chirp bandwidth (BW) of 62.4 GHz at a center frequency of 221.1 GHz is generated and efficiently radiated. We have presented a design technique for the optimal design of the passive embedding around the core transistor to maximize the tuning BW of the voltage controlled oscillator. At the receiver side, to maximize the intermediate frequency level, a subharmonic mixer is utilized, which is designed for the lowest conversion loss. Finally, to obtain the fine lateral resolution, we have implemented near-field beamforming algorithm based on the inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) systems. The synthesized beamwidth is less than 0.5°; hence, high-resolution images are reconstructed. The system is fabricated in a 55-nm BiCMOS process. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first imaging radar at THz/sub-THz frequencies, which utilizes ISAR to achieve a high lateral resolution while the radar system is fully integrated.
