Abstract :
In this article we focused on description and practical experience of our work. It was based on development and construction of experimental and simply reconfigurable Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radar. Found solution allows quick modification of the system parameters as well as parameters of transmitted and received signals. Reconfiguration of the system, which is based on components of National Instruments co. (NI), is accomplished by LabView™ environment. This article points at extension of universal modular devices application possibilities from National Instruments co., which weren´t published yet.
