Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

A radar system using FMCW technology modulates its frequency from 24 GHz to 26 GHz over 0.001 seconds. Calculate the maximum effective detection range for a target reflecting the signal. Use the speed of light as 3x10^8 m/s.

💡 Hint: Make sure to adjust units appropriately and apply the correct formula.

Challenge 2 Hard

How does the presence of multiple moving targets complicate signal processing in FMCW radar? Discuss the implications and possible solutions to mitigate these issues.

💡 Hint: Consider real-world radar applications where multiple targets are common, such as traffic monitoring or air traffic control.
