Popis: To inculcate electromagnetics engineering in the broader undergraduate experience at Wright State University, students of the Sensors and Signals Exploitation Lab designed a 5D antenna positioning system to support applied electromagnetic experiments. The team of students with mixed engineering concentrations designed a 500-dollar antenna positioner and instrumented it to work with a laboratory stepped-frequency radar and signal processing suite. We present the positioning system requirements, completed design. We also demonstrate its application to radar imaging as a way to highlight how electromagnetcs and antenna theory underly radar signal processing.
