Design Example: Coffee Can Radar System

The MIT OpenCourseware Coffee Can Radar project provides free lectures and plans for building a working DIY radar system. This basic homodyne radar system design is capable of Range, Doppler, and Synthetic Aperture imaging and can be built with off the shelf connectorized components that operate in the open ISM bands. This talk takes the original Radar System and analyze it with a true system tool so that a designer can easily look at metrics relevant to radar engineers. Different components for t
