Photonics-enabled Ka-band subscale radar ranging feasibility demonstration

Photonics-enabled Ka-band subscale radar ranging feasibility demonstration

Concept feasibility of a photonics-enabled Ka-band subscale "radar" is demonstrated for ranging. Experimental results using a corner cube reflector and stretch processing are presented, with a 28-GHz carrier modulated by 40-ns, 4-GHz chirp pulses.
