Feasibility Study on Optically Transparent Cylindrical Dielectric Resonator Antennas Integrated in an Enclosed Light Bulb Using Doppler Based Radar for Human Presence Detection

This thesis will focus on an 24 GHz indoor human presence detection radar with an optically transparent dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) applied in an enclosed light source. The DRA was studied extensively by simulations and measurements and demonstrated to suffer from blind spots for radar implementation because of the light bulb housing. To...
