  • Abstract
    This paper reports on the development of an FMCW/monopulse radar front-end design capable of acquiring the range and angular information of all obstacles in its field-of-view simultaneously without using a scanning or switching antenna. Design tradeoffs are discussed and radar front-end test results are presented.
