Abstract :
This paper proposes a millimeter-wave holographic radar with a simple structure for automotive applications. The simplicity can be realized by switching both transmitting antennas and receiving antennas. Also, a super resolution technique is introduced for the detection of angular positions in the proposed radar. The radar developed experimentally has accomplished an azimuthal angular resolution of less than 2 degrees and an azimuthal field of view (FoV) of more than 20 degrees simultaneously.
