Abstract
A coherent, frequency agile 94 GHz radar has been built. This radar includes features like pulse-to-pulse frequency agility within a 400 MHz bandwidth, wide PRF-range from 1-50 kHz with fixed and staggered PRF. The polarisation of the transmitter is switchable from pulse to pulse either from RHC to LHC or from horizontal to vertical depending on the primary feed of the 300 mm cassegrain antenna which is used. Two identical receivers are included for co- and cross-polarized signal reception. A linescanner using a flat mirror has also been built. A rotating speed of 600 rpm gives a scanrate of 20 scans/second using both sides of the mirror.
