Abstract
A compact Ultra wideband (UWB) bistatic radar system has been developed. Lightweight, portable and low in power consumption, it uses low cost, off-the-shelf components, and is ideally suited for ranging, 3D-imaging, and wall characterization. Tests show excellent pulse width generation, resulting in very broadband transmission (0.5-5.5 GHz) and good receiver dynamic range, resulting in accurate measurement capabilities.
