Abstract:
Electromagnetic radiation in the radio frequency band is used extensively in today’s telecommunication systems. Its quasi-omnipresence suggests a possible application in passive radars. The goal is to acquire this electromagnetic energy and convert it to an electrical signal for later processing. Information regarding the target (such as position, speed, etc.) which is reflecting or transmitting this energy can be extracted after applying adequate signal processing techniques. This project aims to design and implement such a receiver in the FM-Band as well as present the underlying theory of such systems.
