Real-Time Bistatic Noise Radar with Adaptive Beamforming

Implementing continuous wave noise radar systems has long been hindered by detrimental self-interference, severely limiting the systems’ detection sensitivity. We experimentally demonstrate the advantage of bistatic separation and adaptive beamforming in suppressing self-interference. The bistatic system operates in real-time and can detect small UAVs at ranges of more than 3.2 km. Increasing the output power or antenna gain will extend the detection range as self-interference does not limit the system; thermal noise does.

Abstract

Implementing continuous wave noise radar systems has long been hindered by detrimental self-interference, severely limiting the systems’ detection sensitivity. We experimentally demonstrate the advantage of bistatic separation and adaptive beamforming in suppressing self-interference. The bistatic system operates in real-time and can detect small UAVs at ranges of more than 3.2 km. Increasing the output power or antenna gain will extend the detection range as self-interference does not limit the system; thermal noise does.
