Abstract

In this work the realization of a 77- GHz frequency-division multiple-access-based frequencymodulated continuous-wave multiple-input multiple-output radar with four transceiver channels in conjunction with a non-uniform linear antenna array is presented. The radar system, consisting of an RF-frontend utilizes transceiver chips with integrated inphase/quadrature-modulators to generate the frequency shifted transmit signals and a field programmable gate array-based baseband board, is used for test measurements to verify the system performance and to demonstrate the beamforming capability as well as the accuracy of the digital-beamforming method.
