Build a Small Radar System Capable of Range, Doppler, and SAR Imaging [PI.80s]
G. Charvat, A. Fenn, B. Perry
Learn how radar systems work by reviewing applied electromagnetics, circuit design, and antennas then build your own and perform field experiments including ranging, Doppler, and SAR imaging. This course will appeal to those who want to learn how to develop radar systems, SAR imaging, use radar technology, or make components or sub-systems.

Build a Small Phased Array Radar Sensor [PI.81s]
MIT Professional Education is offering a unique course in the design, fabrication, and test of a laptop-based digital phased array radar sensor capable of ground moving target imaging (GMTI). Lectures will be presented on the topics of applied electromagnetics, antennas, RF design, analog circuits, radar system modeling, and digital signal processing while at the same time you build your own phased array radar system and perform field experiments. Each student will receive a radar kit, designed by MIT Lincoln Laboratory staff, and a course pack.
