The objective of this project is to research and develop a software designed surveillance radar which is able to transmit signals designed in GNU radio. Software designed radars are an attractive concept since they enable radar systems to be highly flexible with operating parameters. Compared to traditional radar systems, their functionality can be altered through software and are also lower in cost to produce. By understanding how changing a characteristic of a waveform affects the transmitted signal, we will be able to implement different waveforms in our surveillance radar and demonstrate changes in its performance purely through altering the waveform without changing the hardware.

Abstract

The objective of this project is to research and develop a software designed surveillance radar which is able to transmit signals designed in GNU radio. Software designed radars are an attractive concept since they enable radar systems to be highly flexible with operating parameters. Compared to traditional radar systems, their functionality can be altered through software and are also lower in cost to produce. In this project, different waveforms designed in GNU radio will be transmitted by a USRP based surveillance radar and changes in the radars performance will be recorded and related back to what characteristic was altered in the waveform.
