A frequency-modulated continuous-wave (FM-CW) radar system at 94 GHz with a bandwidth of 2 GHz is configured by an optical millimeter-wave synthesizer for short-range application in handheld operation. Combination of an inertial measurement unit and a fiber-remoted radar system help realizing simple radar head configuration.
