Abstract

This paper presents a new architecture of a compact multimode FMCW radar for general purpose short-range applications. The radar can operate in CW as well as in FMCW modes. The transmitted RF frequency or frequency range can be arbitrarily selected using an inbuilt SPI control over 2.25-2.50 GHz with a frequency resolution of at least 100 kHz. A modified VCO-PLL loop with a stable reference source of 10 MHz improves the frequency stability. Other than the audio signal generator, all modules like RF blocks, base-band block DC power management block, and control and synchronization and data acquisition blocks are integrated into a single module using a three-layer PCB configuration. Fabrication and measurement of the radar unit in both the modes are presented.
