A text and general reference on the design and analysis of radarsignals
As radar technology evolves to encompass a growing spectrum ofapplications in military, aerospace, automotive, and other sectors,innovations in digital signal processing have risen to meet thedemand. Presenting a long overdue, up-to-date, dedicated resourceon radar signals, the authors fill a critical gap in radartechnology literature.
Radar Signals features in-depth coverage of the most prevalentclassical and modern radar signals used today, as well as newsignal concepts developed in recent years. Inclusion of key MATLABsoftware codes throughout the book demonstrates how theydramatically simplify the process of describing and analyzingcomplex signals. Topics covered include:
* Matched filter and ambiguity function concepts
* Basic radar signals, with both analytical and numericalanalysis
* Frequency modulated and phase-coded pulses
* Complete discussion of band-limiting schemes
* Coherent LFM pulse trains-the most popular radar signal
* Diversity in pulse trains, including stepped frequencypulses
* Continuous-wave signals
* Multicarrier phase-coded signals
Combining lucid explanation, preferred signal tables, MATLAB codes,and problem sets in each chapter, Radar Signals is an essentialreference for professionals-and a systematic tutorial for anyseeking to broaden their knowledge base in this dynamic field.
