Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 電子研究所 === 107 === Conventional radars are mechanically rotated to achieve signal reception in all directions. Therefore, the scanning speed is limited by the rotation of the antenna, and it is easy to wear and broken. It evolves into an electronic scanning radar, among them, a phase-controlled radar is the most. In the past, passive phase-controlled radar its phase shifter and the waveguide component will make signal correction difficult and the emission energy will be easily depleted. Therefore, the current radar trend has gradually turned into a digital active phase array radar, which controls each array unit to load the radar waveform while the digital signal is adjusted the phase. Through the Base-band enables the RF-band to synthesize the beam in the specified direction, achieving fast radar scanning and accurate correction, and implement a variety of radar applications by defining the waveform and timing control in all digital domain. This paper will introduce the full digital active phase array radar system, which implements phase control and timing control functions based on Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). It includes two radar waveform applications and its digital signal processing, such as frequency modulated continuous wave radar (FMCW), and linear frequency modulated (LFM) pulse-mode radar.
