چکیده
Pulse Compression Techniques are used in Radar systems to avail the benefits of large range detection capability of long duration pulse and high range resolution capability of short duration pulse with low power consumption. In this paper, details of these techniques are given which achieves high range resolution and low peak sidelobe levels under various noise conditions, Doppler shift and multiple target environments. The three very important Radar Pulse Compression techniques called Polyphase, Biphase and Linear frequency modulated (LFM) Codes are discussed in this paper considering their various parameters.

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 کاملLow Power LFM Pulse Compression RADAR with Sidelobe suppression M
One of the parameters of the pulsed RADAR that contributes range capability is the average power of the transmitter. The average power can be increased by increasing the peak power or transmitted pulse width or both. The complexity in the design of transmitter components to withstand high peak power is the most challenging task. On the other hand larger transmitted pulse width affects the RADAR...
متن کاملAssessment of Weighting Functions Used in Oppermann Codes in Polyphase Pulse Compression Radars
Polyphase is a common class of pulse compression waveforms in the radar systems. Oppermann code is one of the used codes with polyphone pattern. After compression, this code has little tolerant against Doppler shift in addition to its high side lobe level. This indicates that the use of Oppermann code is an unsuitable scheme to radars applications. This paper shows that the use of amplitude wei...
