The purpose of this paper is to present the design of the radiofrequency subsystems of a ubiquitous radar in X band. This document is focused on the design of the antennas and the receiver. Ubiquitous radars are novel systems that illuminate a huge coverage with a transmitting antenna while receiving echoes from targets by a group of antennas pointing to the same area. The main characteristics of the receiving antennas are summarized as well as their design and measurements of radiation patterns. In the last part of the paper, the block diagram of each receiver is shown and measurements are compared with simulations.
