Abstract

Radar communication systems have been widely used for various applications, including military surveillance, weather
monitoring, and air traffic control. This research focuses on the concept of simple radar communication systems, which offers
an accessible and practical solution for short-range communication needs. This aim of this research is to explore the
fundamental principles and components of simple radar communication systems, how radar works by emitting radio frequency
(RF) waves and analyzing their reflections to detect objects and gather information about their range, velocity, and direction.
The architecture of a simple radar communication system which includes the transmitter, receiver, and signal processing
components were used to execute the project. The research also addresses the challenges associated with interference,
multipath propagation, and signal processing techniques to mitigate these issues in simple radar communication systems. This
project aims to critically the design and construct a simple radar communication system which include an Arduino nano, an
SG90 servo motor, an HY-SRF05 ultrasonic sensor, a 1602 LCD display, switches, LED’s, Resistors, Lithium-ion batteries,
boost converter and RF modules and its adapters. Radar communication systems employ the same basic principles as
traditional radar systems, which are primarily used for object detection, ranging, and tracking. However, in the case of radar
communication, the transmitted signals contain data or information that is intended for communication purposes.
