Radar Waveform Design & Analysis<br />

Organizer:<br />

Dr. Rao Nuthalapati, Lockheed Martin<br />

Abstract<br />

This course reviews the principles of waveform design and<br />

analysis for radar systems. A primary goal of this course is to<br />

present waveform design trade space and choices a designer<br />

should make in optimizing the waveform parameters for a given<br />

radar sensor application. Several waveform design examples are<br />

presented that are suitable for typical radar applications. Waveform<br />

design considerations are reviewed and characteristics are<br />

compared for selecting an optimal waveform for a given application.<br />

Waveform modulations covered in this course include LFM,<br />

NLFM, polyphase codes, Costas codes, Barker codes, shift-register<br />

codes, quadratic residue codes, and chaotic codes. Waveform<br />

sidelobe suppression techniques are also presented. High Range<br />

Resolution (HRR) waveform design and superresolution concepts<br />

are reviewed for wideband processing.<br />
