Abstract: One preferred embodiment of the present invention provides a system and method for suppressing motion interference in a radar detection system. Briefly described, in architecture, one embodiment of the system, among others, can be implemented as follows. The system includes a signal generator that transmits microwave signals toward a target area. Also, the system includes a data control system to collect data from reflected microwave signals from the target area and to analyze the data in order to suppress unwanted motion interference generated by movement of the radar detection system. Other systems and methods are also provided.

Abstract: A low cost, compact, electronically scanned millimeter wave (MMW) lens enables the projection of a highly directional beam of Ka band millimeter wave (MMW) electromagnetic energy, while eliminating the need for mechanical movement of the lens. The present invention allows for the economical production and operation of the lens in the Ka and higher frequency ranges by exploiting waveguide technology. The waveguides of the present invention are tapered longitudinally resulting in a wider portion of the waveguide in electromagnetic communication with an interior cavity of the lens. The waveguide taper improves impedance matching between the waveguides and the lens cavity. The waveguides also include symmetric power dividers, located longitudinally within the waveguide aperture, ensuring port widths below .lambda..sub.g /2, thus, reducing or eliminating unwanted mode components which reduces sidelobe energy. This results in a low loss, low sidelobe steerable beam of MMW energy.
