Description

In this talk we will demonstrate how to build, control, and process data from a 10 GHz, 8 element, FMCW phased array radar. We will be using Analog Device's open source CN0566 (aka "the Phaser"), the ADALM-PLUTO, and GNU Radio Companion. There will be a live demonstration of beamforming fundamentals including: direction of arrival, monopulse tracking, tapering, grating lobes, and FMCW radar. We will also highlight the advantages of using GRC vs Python. All of this is fully open source, with readily available hardware and software posted at wiki.analog.com/phaser
