The radar sensor is intended for a multistatic radar array where each unit can be configured as Tx or as Rx, providing more flexibility and information than conventional radar arrays. The chip can be configured either as transmitter or receiver. The packaged ICs have been characterized as an FMCW radar with and without dielectric lenses. The radar can cover a 30GHz bandwidth from 110 to 140 GHz, leading to a measured range resolution of 7.1 mm.

This coupled with a lack of understanding regarding consistence device (transistor or passive elements) and EM structure excitation can result in structures and simulation results that do not accurately reflect the true physical problem and thus inaccurate results are obtained.
