-This GNU Radio component implements a monostatic radar transmitter
-and receiver. It uses a custom FPGA build to generate a linear
-FM chirp waveform directly in the USRP. Echo returns are recorded
-to a file for offline analysis.
-
-The LFM chirp can be up to 32 MHz in width, whose center frequency
-is set by which transmit daughter board is installed. This gives
-a range resolution of approximately 5 meters.
-
-The script to run is placed in $prefix/bin:
-
-Usage: usrp_radar_mono.py [options]
-
-Options:
- -h, --help show this help message and exit
- -T TX_SUBDEV_SPEC, --tx-subdev-spec=TX_SUBDEV_SPEC
- use transmitter board side A or B (default is first
- found)
- -R RX_SUBDEV_SPEC, --rx-subdev-spec=RX_SUBDEV_SPEC
- use receiver board side A or B (default is first
- found)
- -g GAIN, --gain=GAIN set gain in dB (default is midpoint)
- -f FREQ, --frequency=FREQ
- set transmitter center frequency to FREQ in Hz,
- default is 0.0
- -w FREQ, --chirp-width=FREQ
- set LFM chirp bandwidth in Hz, default is 32M
- -a AMPLITUDE, --amplitude=AMPLITUDE
- set waveform amplitude in % full scale, default is 15,
- --ton=TON set pulse on period in seconds, default is 5e-06,
- --tsw=TSW set transmitter switching period in seconds, default
- is 4.0625e-07,
- --tlook=TLOOK set receiver look time in seconds, default is 5e-06,
- --prf=PRF set pulse repetition frequency in Hz, default is
- 10000.0,
- -v, --verbose enable verbose output, default is disabled
- -D, --debug enable debugging output, default is disabled
- -F FILENAME, --filename=FILENAME
- log received echos to file
-
-The transmitter creates an LFM chirp, evenly centered on the supplied frequency.
-The four timing parameters are:
-
-ton Chirp on time in seconds.
-
-tsw Transmitter switching time in seconds. This the delay after the chirp
- is transmitted before the receiver is enabled. These two (tsw and ton)
- parameters determine the minimum range of the radar.
-
-tlook The the amount of time in seconds the receiver is enabled to record
- echo responses ("look" time). This parameter determines the maximum
- radar range that can be measured, though transmitter power will also
- limit return strength and practical range.
-
-prf Pulse repetition frequency in Hz. This establishes to overall pulse
- repetition period, which results in idle time between when the receiver
- is turned off and the next transmitted chirp begins.
-
-The transmitter is completed. The receive path is logging echo data to a supplied
-file; however, no meta-data is logged.
-
-This is experimental code.
