LINEAR DIGITAL CORRELATOR (DICOR),

Abstract

A linear digital correlator (DICOR) was built and tested in the laboratory. Its design evolved from investigations of matched filtering of coded-pulse radar signals utilizing digital techniques. DICOR represents an attempt to find an economical means of eliminating or reducing the strong-signal-capture effect which leads to complexity and high cost in digital matched filters. Laboratory performance of DICOR agreed with theoretical predictions for a seven-element coded signal. The basic DICOR unit is reproducible in large quantities, is of reasonable cost, and uses commonly stocked components. (Author)
