Ask a question about UWB through wall radar

Started by sugarfish May 6, 2007
Hi!all
   I am perform on UWB through wall radar research. The most advanced
through wall radar system is the "Xaver 800" produced by Israel
Camero-Tech Ltd. The "Xaver 800" used the ultra short pluse with bandwidth
about 7GHz. How to sample and digitalize such wideband signals? If i must
get a AD converter  faster than 7G? Thanks

That is THz Radar Wim
Wouldn't you expect to use an analog matched filter followed by a filter prior 
to conversion to digital waveform?  A/D conversion is getting faster but I 
think the top limit is around 5 GHz.

I know other radar apart from the Xaver that also obtains good results, but they are not commercial but for research. These kind of signals with so high bandwidth are usually demodulated before digitalization. You can search more information in the web, searching for Continous-wave radar (CW-radar). After this demodulation, bandwidth only depends on desired range coverage.
