1. A method for cancelling phase noise in a radar signal, the method comprising:

  • transmitting a radio frequency (RF) oscillator signal, which represents a local oscillator signal including phase noise, to a radar channel;

    receiving a respective first RF radar signal from the radar channel, the first RF radar signal including at least one radar echo of the transmitted RF oscillator signal;

    applying the RF oscillator signal to an artificial radar target composed of circuitry, which applies a delay and a gain to the RF oscillator signal, to generate a second RF radar signal;

    modulating the second RF radar signal by a modulation signal to generate a frequency-shifted RF radar signal; and

    subtracting the frequency-shifted RF radar signal from the first RF radar signal.
