Swept bandpass filter frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) receiver and related method Patent uri icon

abstract

  • A swept bandpass filter for receiving frequency varying input signals is disclosed. More particularly, a swept bandpass filter frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) receiver and related method are disclosed that provide an efficient solution for FMCW signals. The swept bandpass architecture eliminates the need for front-end mixing circuitry and allows for sampling across one or more Nyquist zones within the swept frequency band.
