Abstract
In this paper, a novel MATLAB-implemented millimeter-wave radar system simulation tool is described, allowing simulations of a radar sensor including the electromagnetic propagation channel. A phased array module, implemented into this simulator, is introduced. A complete simulation is performed for a specific scenario employing a steerable antenna system to show its contribution to the overall performance of a 77 GHz FMCW radar sensor.
