Sad to have missed out! Also would love more videos from you!
Thanks! I hope to start a series in a few weeks.....
Good day Jon! First I want to say Thank you for your work! (I'm software developer with 15years of experience, but I have no experience in radio field and your videos gave me A LOT of knowledge) I'm trying to order PHASER but so far, it's not available to buy anywhere in US or Europe:( Main question: I understand that this is an evaluation board, but can we estimate it's radar capabilities? Like, how far it can detect object with radar cross section of 0.1m2 for example? I understand that there are quite a lot of inputs that affects detection range like fog, environment noise etc. But can we get some rough numbers for good condition? 1m, 10m, 100m or 500m? And additional question: We have 8 by 4 patch antenna. I see in schematic two ADAR1000, each of it has 4 channels, every channel connects to row of 4 antenna elements. As I understand, one channel can control one antenna, but we have 4 elements on one channel, can we control them individually? if no, why do we need 4 elements on one channel? (the only guess is to form some specific shape of radio signal (radiation pattern?)?) Best regards from Ukraine, Odesa!
Yes, we've been having trouble keeping the Phasers in stock. We should have a new batch of them in early Feb 2024. I think the best way to get them as soon as they are available is to place an order on Digikey. Don't wait for them to be in stock to order -- as they may go out of stock again. It's best to order even when they say out of stock. Regarding your 2nd question: the 4 patch antennas in a column are combined together to improve directivity of the array. So you cannot control them individually, but they do greatly increase the range of the antenna. Finally, I don't know of a good way to quantify the radar range. I'll be doing a new radar video series with the Phaser, and I'll try to add some cases where the object goes beyond the detection limit.
@@jonkraft thank you! I can't wait to watch the new series!:)
Is it possible to buy the board. I am interrest as a hobby (I made my maters synthetic aperture radar anterrans in 1993). Since I have work with mixed signal RF-ASIC design. The last 5 years I have been doing software.
I hope it possible to buy a kit!
