Abstract
This paper presents the design and simulation of transmitter and receiver sections for C-band FMCW radar which is mainly used in Altimeters. FMCW radars have advantages over pulsed radars which include low transmitter power and low probability of interception.The transmitter section consists of upconversion, filtering, frequency multiplication, amplification and power divider blocks. Receiver section includes down conversion, filtering and amplification blocks. The transmitter and receiverblock level simulation has been done using KeysightSystemVue software. The dynamic range of the receiver has been achieved up to 80 dB using Variable Gain Amplifier. With high dynamic range, additional long or short distance targets can be detected.
Keywords- Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW), power divider, receiver, dynamic range, Variable Gain Amplifier (VGA)
