Digital Pulse Compression Techniques.
Abstract
The purpose of this work was to identify and study pulse compression techniques useful in LPI (i.e., Low Probability of Intercept) applications. More specifically, the technique proposed should be capable of compression ratios of from 128 to 1024 or higher, and integrated sidelobes of -35 to -30 db throughout the compression range; furthermore, it should be easy to mechanize, and should result in minimal S/N loss. It was concluded that nonlinear FM is the pulse-compression scheme capable of satisfying all these requirements, and existing technologies make its mechanization feasible. (Author)
