Range Sidelobe Suppression Using Complementary Sets in Distributed Multistatic Radar Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose an alternative waveform scheme built on mutually-orthogonal complementary sets for a distributed multistatic radar. Our analysis and simulation show a reduced frequency band requirement for signal separation between antennas with centralized signal processing using the same carrier frequency. While the scheme can tolerate fluctuations of carrier frequencies and phases, range sidelobes arise when carrier frequencies between antennas are significantly different.

Extending the Radar Dynamic Range using Adaptive Pulse Compression
The matched filter in the radar receiver is only adapted to the transmitted signal version and its output will be wasted due to non-matching with the received signal from the environment. The sidelobes amplitude of the matched filter output in pulse compression radars are dependent on the transmitted coded waveforms that extended as much as the length of the code on both sides of the target loc...
متن کاملMultifrequency and Multistatic Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar, with Application to FM Passive Radar
This paper deals with the imaging of a moving target using a multifrequency and multistatic radar consisting in one receiver and several narrowband transmitters. Considering two hypotheses about the studied target, we derive two multistatic inverse synthetic aperture radar processors: the first one, which models the target as a set of isotropic points, performs a coherent sum of bistatic images...
متن کاملPulse compression for weather radars
Wideband waveform techniques, such as pulse compression, allow for accurate weather radar measurements in a short data acquisition time. However, for extended targets such as precipitation systems, range sidelobes mask and corrupt observations of weak phenomena occurring near areas of strong echoes. Therefore, sidelobe suppression is extremely important in precisely determining the echo scatter...

متن کاملOn Receive Filter Design for Coherent MIMO Radar with Non-Ideal Waveforms
In this paper, we consider the problem of coherent multiple-input multiple-output radar receive filter design. If the transmitted radar waveforms do not have the desired ideal autoand cross-correlation properties, the signal at the output of a matched filter (MF) can suffer severe interference due to targets in neighboring range-Doppler bins. Existing receive filter design approaches, e.g., ins...
