Abstract :
Summary form only given. As technology advances, equipment is becoming more compact, so the idea of having radar on a chip becomes more important. A radar system is broken down into its circuit elements. This system shows how we can have control of the minimum range detected by a software tool (LABVIEW) by simply moving a button instead of having complicated circuitry. A display system implemented fully with the same software that can be transformed into FPGA is also shown as a step towards having a radar system fully implemented on a chip. The use of software gives flexibility as it can be applied to any radar without the need to change any parameter in the display system.
