摘要：

Design and results of a 77-GHz frequency-modulation/continuous-wave radar sensor based od a simple waveguide circuitry and a novel type of printed, low-profile, and low-loss antenna are presented. A Gunn voltage-controlled oscillator and a finline mixer act as transmitter and receiver, respectively, connected by two E-plane couplers. The folded reflector-type antenna consists of a printed slot array and another planar substrate, which, at the same time, provides twisting of the polarization and focusing of the incident wave. The performance of the radar is described, together with the initial results of a scanning of the antenna beam.
