This book presents the theory  analysis and design of microwave stepped-frequency radar
sensors. Stepped-frequency radar sensors are attractive for various sensing applications that
require fine resolution. The book consists of five chapters. The first chapter describes the
fundamentals of radar sensors including applications followed by a review of ultra-wideband
pulsed  frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW)  and stepped-frequency radar sensors. The
second chapter discusses a general analysis of radar sensors including wave propagation in
media and scattering on targets  as well as the radar equation. The third chapter addresses the
analysis of stepped-frequency radar sensors including their principles and design parameters.
Chapter 4 presents the development of two stepped-frequency radar sensors at microwave and
millimeter-wave frequencies based on microwave integrated circuits (MICs)  microwave monolithic
integrated circuits (MMICs) and printed-circuit antennas  and discusses their signal
processing. Chapter 5 provides the electrical characterization and test results of the
developed microwave and millimeter-wave stepped-frequency radar sensors. Finally  a summary and
conclusion is provided.
