Abstract In this contribution we introduce a novel radar positioning system. It makes use of a mathematical curve, called hypocycloid, for a slanting movement of the radar antenna. By means of a planetary gear, a ball, and a universal joint as well as a stepping motor, a two dimensional positioning is provided by a uniaxial drive shaft exclusively. The fundamental position calculation and different signal processing algorithms are presented. By means of an 80 GHz FMCW radar system we performed several measurements on objects with discrete heights as well as on objects with continuous surfaces. The results of these investigations are essential part of this contribution and are discussed in detail.

Abstract This paper presents a design of a Doppler AMTI filter, for a radar with a variable pulse repetition period (stagger). The filter can suppress ground and volume clutter echoes simultaneously. The maximum filter impulse response length is limited to 5 coefficients due to a limited radar system stability and a radar antenna movement.
