Jean-Michel Friedt
Jean-Michel Friedt is associate professor at the University of Franche-Comté in Besançon, France with his research activity hosted by the Time & Frequency department of the FEMTO-ST institute. His interests include the use of digital electronics in stable time and frequency signal generation and dissemination, including Global Navigation Satellite Signals and RADAR processing. He is the co-author of the book "Communication Systems Engineering with GNU Radio: A Hands-on Approach" including a detailed description of software defined radio RADARs.
Session
RAdio-frequency Detection And Ranging (RADAR) aims at using electromagnetic signals for detecting target location and motion. We demonstrate in this talk various RADAR architectures using dual-channel coherent Software Defined Radio (SDR) receivers and the associated signal processing techniques relying heavily on cross-correlations. Embedded systems are tackled, with a Raspberry Pi providing enough computational power for recording and post-processing.
