Figure 2 illustrates the schematic configuration of OPCR based on the LFM pulse compression technology. Pulse Compression of LFM Signal Based on FPGA Abstract: Presently, a widely used method to compress signal with linear frequency modulation is based on DSP and realized by software. Pulse compression with LFM pulse modulation was proposed in which the received signal is compared with matched filter impulse response for correlation and proved with simulations that with the compression of effective pulse width, range and resolution can be enhanced. Most of the mentioned studies have focused on CA-CFAR detectors. In Range compression matched filtering is used to increase the signal-to –noise ratio (SNR). Adaptive Pulse Compression (APC) is another pulse compression algorithm that has recently been modified to be applicable to FM waveforms. Then the high spatial resolution can be realized by pulse compression effect. Linear frequency modulation (LFM) pulse is taken as an example to implement the OPCR. This way not only has no advantages on real-time operations but also has high requirement of hardware quantity in the case of processing large FFT points.

Linear Frequency Modulation (LFM) pulse compression search radars maintains high range resolution along with high average power. To solve this problem, a multiple-false-target jamming method against a linear frequency modulation (LFM) pulse compression radar with a mean level (ML) CFAR detector was proposed in [9, 10]. Hi there! Abstract: Linear Frequency Modulation (LFM) pulse compression search radars maintains high range resolution along with high average power. This work includes analysis of these modifications via simulation and measured data. However, since the LFM waveform duration is 1 µs it has the same energy as the unmodulated, 1-µs pulse. LFM pulse compression technique is conducted by adding frequency modulation to a long pulse at transmission. The implications here are that the (15-MHz) LFM waveform and the 1/15-µs pulse have about the same range resolution. Second, analysis of background noise. It is a process of transmitting a longer pulse and on receiving compressing it to a shorter pulse. In this paper, convolution noise jamming is introduced as a form of smart noise jamming against LFM-PC search radars. The LFM optical pulse serves as the probe pulse and the matched filter at the detecting part makes full use of the energy. For LFM-PC radar, the additional processing gain due to pulse compression and coherent integration shall be added to the term SNR [4,10] giving a new SNR, designated as SNR 2 , which is given by:2 = • • •(9)Where, N is the number of pulses in one CPI and ( • ) is the compression gain. Click Count: 261. Moreover, it has high processing gain which results in a high immunity against conventional noise jamming. To transmit a long pulse that has a bandwidth corresponding to a short pulse, pulse compression technique is required. But the output SNR can be reduced by 1 to 2 dB due to windowing, this leads to reduce the false alarm rates in object detection applications. Range compression: LFM or chirp signal is used to compress the range signal. E.g. A Taking this as the starting point, this paper studies and simulates the pulse compression of the chirp signal, and proposes a method for designing pulse compression using the IP core. Kiran Patel, Usha Neelakantan , Shalini Gangele, J.G Vacchani, N.M. Desai implemented [2] the Pulse compression using LFM technologies is a useful technique for SAR; it is an enabling technology to facilitate the use of the low power component in the transmitter. Codes are known taking into consideration the important parameters like the mainlobe width, range resolution and PSL. If a LFM signal and wide bandwidth noise of equal power are applied to the matched filter, the matched filter output power is increased by a factor equal to the compression factor (PC), where PC=T/(1/Δf)=TB, (defined by division of the pulse length at the filter input by the separation distance of 3 dB power points of the filter output). First, analysis of pulse compression performance. To have “narrow” in range (time) domain, the waveform must have “wide” bandwidth in frequency domain The bandwidth of an unmodulated pulse of duration T p is 1/ T p Pulse Compression Use modulated pulses to get better range resolution. A very common pulse compression radar waveform is LFM chirp signal. In this paper, the performance of such radar is evaluated analytically, which has not been exploited in any other literature before, under the effect of pulsed noise jamming. : the air surveillance radar AN/FPS-117 has got an LFM waveform with the time-bandwidth product of 75. This way not only has no advantages on real-time operations but also has high requirement of hardware quantity in the case of processing large FFT points. The effects of straddling and Doppler on APC are also examined. Pulse Compression Range response is the auto-correlation of the transmitted signal. transmitter should be increased. An optical source (i.e. In order to assure the sidelobe suppression, the main objective of this paper is to present an adequate synthesis algorithm of NLFM signals based on stationary phase principle.

Its utility is that it is fairly generated by a variety of technologies, and is easily processed by a variety of techniques that ultimately im- plement a matched filter. Section 3 presents an analysis of the amount of loss in the signal-to-noise ratio due to applying taper windows.
