Description
The Navtech 77GHz Millimetre Wave FMCW radar is a high performance radar system
designed for use in industrial sensing applications. With the standard scanner unit the
radar is able to scan 360 degrees around the sensor. When fitted with the optional 3D
scanner unit shown in Fig. 1 the radar beam may be simultaneously scanned in azimuth
and elevation. This allows the area around and above/below the sensor to be covered.

The unit provides a full 360 degrees scan in azimuth at 2.5 Hz with target ranges up to
between 200 and 800m. The system scans in elevation over 30 degrees, from 15
degrees below the horizontal to 15 degrees above. Some of the system specifications
may be customised to suit a specific client application.

The radar signal is digitised and processed within the unit by a high speed DSP system.
As standard the system will provide range and bearing information to the nearest target
that is above a predefined size. It is also possible to send complete power spectra
information over the chosen interface. This includes the returned radar signal power at
each incremental range step from the sensor, up to the maximum range.

RS232 and CAN bus interfaces are available as standard. Other interface options are
available for receiving the processed radar data including a 100Mbit Ethernet. This high
bandwidth interface allows the complete power spectra information to be acquired at the
maximum scan rate of the sensor.

The sensor is supplied with a graphical user interface. This allows the user to visualise
the radar data acquired in real time over the Ethernet interface. Detection parameters
can be set and the display can be rotated and zoomed in/out on an area of interest.
