Module Number: 14362
Module Title:Radar Systems
  Radarsysteme
Department: Faculty 1 - Mathematics, Computer Science, Physics, Electrical Engineering and Information Technology
Responsible Staff Member:
  • Prof. Dr.-Ing. Gardill, Markus
Language of Teaching / Examination:English
Duration:1 semester
Frequency of Offer: Every winter semester
Credits: 6
Learning Outcome:After successfully completing the module, students have an understanding of the fundamentals of radar systems.They can describe the propagation of electromagnetic waves in wireless channels in time and frequency domain. They are able to classify radar systems and their operating principles and parameters. and to model the kinematics of radar targets. Further they are able to analyse and classify radar methods, waveforms and their characteristics. They understand and apply essential steps in digital signal processing in radar systems. They are able to analyse radar systems at the system level.
Contents:Radar systems for applications in industry, transportation, medical technology, and remote sensing. This includes in particular an overview of radar systems, terminology, propagation of electromagnetic waves, kinematics of radar targets, modeling of transmit and receive power, radar waveforms, modeling of radar systems and radar signal processing.

In the exercise, the contents of this lecture are consolidated by calculation examples, deepened in computer-based simulations  and examples and finally applied in practical experiments with radar system hardware.
