Abstract
In networks of distributed radar sensors the measurements need to be synchronized to enable a joint processing and to avoid interference between the nodes. The proposed approach supersedes the distribution of a dedicated trigger cable by utilizing the multistatic target responses for time synchronization of the nodes. Each node is operated with a chirp-sequence modulation scheme, and the initial measurements are free running. The time-shifts between all sensors are recovered from the mutual interference of the nodes. The approach is verified by measurements that are conducted with three sensors, operated in the 77 GHz frequency band.
