Phased Array Radar

This repository was created to provide python enabled code to read data from MIT's BUILD A SMALL PHASED ARRAY RADAR SENSOR.

Requires:

• SciPy
• NumPy
• pySerial
• matplotlib

I recommend using the free downloadable python distribution by Enthough

Usage

In a terminal type the following in a terminal window:

Usage: phased_array.py [options]

Options:
-h, --help            show this help message and exit
-f FILE, --file=FILE  binary file to read from
-p PORT, --port=PORT  serial port to read from
-r FILENAME, --record=FILENAME
    	              file to write data to
--mti                 Turn on two pulse cancelor
--raw                 plot raw data
--raw-mti             plot raw data with two-pulse cancel
--rti-avg             plot RTI averaged across channels
--rti-max             plot RTI using max over angle bins in range-angle space
--range-angle         plot the range-angle data

This code is untested in Windows and Linux.
