Abstract :
The pressure applied to passive sensors modifies their radar echo magnitude. From the FMCW radar interrogation of such passive sensors the pressure can then been remotely measured. The first experimental results presented here demonstrate the feasibility of the wireless measurement of physical quantities from radar echo measurement of passive sensors.
