Abstract :
The development of a low cost MMIC based millimetre-wave radar module is presented. The paper concentrates on the design of the front end module which forms the heart of a synchronised multistatic radar network designed by Roke Manor Research Ltd. for short range automotive applications. The concept, design methodology, simulation data, and monostatic test results are presented.
