Abstract :
Radar sensors play a key role in today´s industrial automation. Besides high accuracy, modern radar sensors have to feature high precision as well as challenging update rates. Six-Port wave correlators enable high phase resolution at high frequencies and therefore a high accuracy in radar applications. A low-cost Schottky diode detector applied to a substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) Six-Port is presented and measured. Furthermore, a displacement measurement using the SIW structure is performed.
