Environment and Radar Operation Simulator.

Abstract

This report summarizes activities during the seventh quarter of a program sponsored by the U.S. Army Electronics Command (ECOM), directed toward the design of an Environment and Radar Operation Simulator (EROS). In addition some of the analysis results and design decisions are described in detail. A computer simulation of the shift-register random-number generator has been performed to verify its autocorrelation properties. The implementation decision with regard to radar cross section scaling is presented as a formula, and the techniques for applying this formula to target and clutter signals are discussed. In previously reported design plans the range weighting and integration, functions were to be performed by digital hardware. It has been determined that there are a number of advantages to performing these functions in analog hardware, and the design plan has been modified accordingly. (Author)
