HB100 FMCW Radar

Description

Inspired by the work of Gregory Charvat (http://hackaday.com/2014/02/24/guest-post-try-radar-for-your-next-project/) (http://hackaday.com/2014/03/17/radar-imaging-in-your-garage-synthetic-aperture-radar/) I decided to build my own FMCW ranging radar.

Since the coffee can thing had already been done I challenged my self to extra low cost. Using an HB100, teensy 3.2 and ADAU1761 I've built a functioning FMCW ranging radar.

More details to come...

Hello Tim.

Great project.

What you did was very interesting.
I have a few questions if I do not hinder you?
With what frequency generator HB100 sweeping (hz- Khz) ?

How did you do the FFT analysis?
On what platform ?

Thanks

Anton

Look at very old PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) used freq hopping to avoid detection and jamming. 60's era satellites and spec ops ground comm.

In order to implement a FMCW Radar it is necessary to modulate the frequency of the oscillator. As far as I can see the HB100's oscillator has fixed frequency. I am very interested how you managed to modulate the oscillator's frequency, because I want to make a similar project myself, but I can't figure out how to do it.
