Abstract :
In this paper, we propose a radar using standing wave, and describe the measurement principle and experiment results. This radar does not use a time delay like usual radars but uses the amplitude of the standing wave. As a result of experiments, this radar could measure the distance and velocity of a moving target using bandwidth of only 76 MHz permitted by the specification of low-power radio equipment to detect moving objects (24 GHz band). The bandwidth of the radar is narrower than that of a millimeter wave radar.
