Abstract

A fully integrated simulation environment for an
FMCW radar system in an indoor environment operating at
60 GHz has been proposed. The simulation of the entire signal
processing chain, starting with a CST simulation of the antenna
pattern and extending to the radar signal processing, enabled
the demonstration of the radar hardware’s and the channel’s
inherent properties. Measurements and simulations have revealed
the inherent fluctuation paths of a human target by showing a
variation of 10 dB in the reflection power of the human and
0.5 m in the range profile in measurements. The papers results
could demonstrate that synthetic datasets can be considered valid
alternatives in radar detection. The channel properties could be
examined by investigating different up-tilt configurations, and
problems such as ground reflections caused by side lobes and
multipath propagation within the human target could be further
investigated.
