Abstract
A method for operating a stepped frequency radar system is disclosed. The method involves receiving digital frequency control signals that correspond to different frequencies of radio frequency (RF) signals, and performing stepped frequency scanning across a frequency range using at least one transmit antenna and a two-dimensional array of receive antennas and RF signals at the different frequencies that correspond to the digital frequency control signals.
