Design of high-speed radar signal processor based on FPGA

Abstract

Radar ranging and speed measurement are common applications in daily life, with performance largely dependent on the radar signal processor. However, existing civilian radar signal processors struggle with weak signal reception and low analysis efficiency. This study designs a high-speed radar signal processor based on FPGA architecture, incorporating a fusion processing algorithm to integrate different radar signal bands, enhancing processing efficiency and accuracy. The design includes data feature analysis, storage, and fusion modules. Tests showed that the processor achieved real-time performance with a processing time under 1ms, a ranging error below 1m, and speed measurement accuracy within 5m/s, meeting practical requirements.
