비접촉식 유속계를 위한 10.5 GHz 대역 도플러 레이더에 대한 연구

A study of 10.5 GHz band Doppler radar for non-contact type hydrometer

A Doppler radar is a radar using the doppler effect of the returned echoes from targets to measure their radial velocity. To be more specific the microwave signal sent by the radar antenna s directional beam is reflected toward the radar and compared in frequency, up or down from the original signal, allowing for the direct and highly accurate measurement of target velocity component in the direction of the beam. In this paper, we designed the doppler radar composed of 10.5 GHz band DROs(Dielectric Resonator Oscillator), 90 ° branch line coupler, single balanced mixer and 4×4 array antenna of high gain, high directivity, for non-contact type hydrometer. Fabricated Doppler radar can detect slow moving objects.
