To address systematic measurement errors arising from receiver inphase-quadrature (IQ) imperfections as well as the own radar cross section of the radar device (self-RCS), a model of the radar response that accounts for both effects is presented. Given the model parameters, which are retrieved based on calibration measurements, the effects of both IQ-imbalance and self-RCS can be removed. Measurements with a custom 24-GHz six-port-based radar system validate the proposed concept enabling highly accurate relative displacement measurements.enTechnology::600: TechnologyCompensation of self-RCS and IQ-demodulation imperfections of continuous-wave radar systemsConference Paper10.23919/IRS64527.2025.11046051Conference Paper
