Build Your Own Drone Tracking Radar: Part 2 CW Radar
Переглядів 40,232
День томуThis is the second video in a new 5 part series where I will show you how to build and program your own radar. At the end, we'll use it to locate a small drone. In this video, we'll explore the fundamentals of pulsed radar, and then continuous wave (CW) radar. We'll conclude with a demonstration and examination of the Python program to implement this.

Either you are very knowledgeable, used a huge amount of time thinking out the material presented, here or both. This is so well paced and presented making it a pleasure to follow. Thanks for your time and effort.

The gadget that made police radars practical was the microwave circulator. With that, one antenna could be used to transmit and receive. In WW2 it was common to put a yagi antenna on one wing, and another on the other wing, to provide isolation. Back then UHF FMCW was used for dive-bombing attacks. The ships were large, so the antennas and power were small.

Had an interest in rf since trying to get my head around waveguides etc, and turning radar alarm heads into radios using fm radios as the rx audio section. Great start to the series looking forward to the next.

This is great, quickly commenting just two minutes into the video… I dunno what your paranoia levels are but one thing you might consider is removing the family portraits from the frame / background of your videos. Just a thought. Excited for this series. Thanks!

Yes, that's a good idea. At the end of the series, I'll post the slides to my github site. Thanks.
@ramishawwa5661 3 місяці тому
That's one reason why I suggested Plasma Antenna, since you can emit very high peak power and ultra short pulses unlike normal antennas! Plasma antennas are perfect for pulsed Radar only problem is not many know about them since usage is usually in top secret projects that being said many of us out there that experiment with it would never look back at using any other type of antenna especially if you want to be stealthy and not get in trouble with FCC. Trust me, until you try out one, you won't understand what you're missing on it's a whole new ball game with plasma!!! 😀 oh and btw you don't need a phased array, Plasma Antenna can do everything a phased array does with 360 degree directional capability.

Sort of an advanced topic but what about an ISAR to image vehicles on a freeway?
@ericsmith7705 Місяць тому
Jon, this is a great series, thanks. Two questions: do you have any information on availability of the phaser h/w? I see that it is out of stock on the A/D site. What about licensing to transmit for your end goal of a drone tracking radar?
@Perryman1138 3 місяці тому
Would it make sense to separate the gui python into its own .py file? Really enjoying the series so far! Thank you for walking through the code line by line. It makes it a lot more clear what’s going on.
@skeletonmasterkiller 3 місяці тому
Hi Jon thank you very much for this It is very helpful. Why are you not trying to make a datacube with the recieved signals for further processing or is summing up the two channels more than enough? Also on a sidenote isn't our antenna an 8*4 array shouldn't there be 8 recieve channels? Or is it the number of adar1000's on the board? Its my understanding that we would need the datacube (I am following the Matlab tech talks explanation of fmcw radar) for the cfar algorithm development. Thanks again for this fantastic series much appreciated, I have backordered a phaser from digikey looking forward to building this out.
@jonkraft 3 місяці тому
Thanks! So I'm building this radar up step-by-step. And we're not quite at datacubes yet! And its not necessary for CFAR. But the fifth video will be all about multi-chirp processing. So it starts with a 2D radar data matrix of slow time and fast time. From that, I can add antenna elements to create the cube. But that would be a follow up video, and only if there's enough interest in phased array beamforming radar. I'll post a poll soon with ideas for future videos, and this will be one of them. Thanks.

Good day Jon! Didn't you think of creating some Discord channel for community build up/thoughts sharing?:) or any other platform
@jonkraft 3 місяці тому
That is a good idea, if enough people want that. It could be useful for posting files and troubleshooting various hardware -- and it doesn't have to be the hardware I'm using. I just don't know what's the easiest way to link that to this channel. There used to be a discussion tab on youtube channels, but that's gone now.
@JohnScherer 3 місяці тому

According to matlab Pt in Radar Equation is peak transmit power.
@jonkraft 3 місяці тому
I believe they also factor in pulse width, so then peak power makes sense for their version of the equation.
@mrlazda 3 місяці тому
@jonkraft No, there is no pulse with their equation (it is the same as one you wrote) , but it make sense. The radar equation gives you recived power (reflected power), which does not change with puls width. Received energy is dependent on pulse width frequency of pulsed and power..
@dimzen5406 3 місяці тому
If I aim to design anti-radar drone there seems much more easier to spot CW then pulse one. My mind slowly drifted in direction of IR lidar.. 🤔
@konserv 3 місяці тому
My understanding is that instead of SDR we can use some GHz signal generator for transmitting and some ADC for receiving. Is that correct?
@konserv 3 місяці тому
And we don't need a good resolution ADC, because we can mix (somehow) our TX and RX to get a beat frequency (which is in range of KHz) and digitize only that beat frequency.
@jonkraft 3 місяці тому
Yes, you could disconnect Pluto and use a separate ADC and signal generator.
@jonkraft 3 місяці тому
The ADC still has to be good though, to digitize the beat frequency return and not introduce spurs, non-linearity, or DC offset. But many other ADCs, other than Pluto, would work.
