The resolution of the FMCW radar is determined by the frequency change that occurs within this time limit. Simple continuous wave radar devices without frequency modulation have the disadvantage IEEE Trans. Different from the previous analog time-domain modulations of EM/circuit characteristic parameters, by elaborately designing the reflection amplitudes/phases in different time slices in a digital-coding way, it is possible to tailor the propagation behaviors of nonlinear harmonics18,26,27,28,29.

This measurement method is then a field of interferometry. Mater. Using a Fourier transform with a rectangular window of integration extending over a time interval of length leads to the following representation of the power in the mixer output signal: Here is the analysis frequency and is the power of the target echo. Specifically, when the metasurface is excited by a monochromatic wave at the normal incidence with the carrier frequency of \(f_c\) and the electric field \(E_i\left( t \right) = {\mathrm{exp}}(j2\pi f_ct)\), the echo wave \(E_r(t)\) can be represented as: Assume that we have a highly reflective metasurface with the reflection amplitude \(\left| {\Gamma (t)} \right|\) equal to 1, \(\varphi \left( t \right)\) is a periodic function of time as follows, Note that \(\varphi _0\left( t \right)\) is a portion of \(\varphi \left( t \right)\) in a period T, and \(\varepsilon \left( \cdot \right)\) is the step function.

During the generation of FMCW waveform based on STCM, it is worth noting that Eq. 69, 815824 (2021). way to construct a FMCW system, is to compare the phase difference that it cannot determine target range because it lacks the timing mark necessary Here, we propose a theoretical framework and method to generate frequency-modulated continuous waves (FMCWs) and control their spatial propagation behaviors simultaneously via a novel STCM with nonlinearly periodic phases.

WebFrequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar is widely studied in automotive, medicine, communication, and other fields due to its small size, high precision, and high bandwidth. To overcome this difficulty, time-modulated metasurfaces have been further developed, with the constitutive parameters varying in the time and space domains to break the Lorentz reciprocity, thus bringing a new degree of freedom for manipulating the frequency spectra of the EM waves15,16,17,18. (Frequency-Modulated Continuous Wave radar = FMCW radar) (5), it can be seen that the frequency modulation is neatly realized during the wave-matter interactions, in which the metasurface is only excited by a single-tone EM signal.

The experimental configuration is illustrated in Fig. WebFrequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar is widely studied in automotive, medicine, communication, and other fields due to its small size, high precision, and high 6ac for comparison. To tackle this problem, the concept of digital coding and programmable metasurfaces was proposed9, and the corresponding radiation/scattering characteristics of the metasurfaces are highly related to the coding sequences of finite types of meta-atoms. In a frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FMCW) radar system, an FM-modulated carrier is transmitted and the delay between the reflected and the transmitted carriers is taken as a measure of the distance, i.e.
