Keywords: Ultrasound Mimicking Radar, Single Antenna Rangefinder.

Abstract: A single antenna short-range radar transceiver emits 24GHz RF sinewave packets and samples echoes with strobed timing such that the illusion of wave propagation at the speed of sound is observed, thereby forming an ultrasound mimicking radar.

Applications include automotive backup and collision warning, precision radar rangefinding for fluid level sensing and robotics, precision radiolocation, wideband communications and time-resolved holographic imaging.
