Superregenerative Incoherent UWB Pulse Radar System

A new short range ultra wideband (UWB) radar system with a very simple design due to its superregenerative receiver concept has been studied. The system does not require any amplification of RF or IF signals which allows to build a very inexpensive low-power sensor. With measurements, simple mathematical models and a simulation in time-domain the voltage amplitude of the measurement signal of the receiver is investigated. The applicability as a sensor is shown in a radar device
