Coupling theory with reality, from derivation to implementation of actual radar systems, this essential reference analyzes and then provides design procedures and working design examples of small and short-range radar systems. Discussing applications from automotive to through-wall imaging, the practical text supplies high-level descriptions, theoretical derrivations, back-of-envelope calculations, explanations of processing algorithms, and case studies for each type of small radar system covered, including continuous wave, ultrawideband impulse, phased array, and more, effectively demonstrating how to quickly move a design from concept to reality.
