Implementation of blind zone and range-velocity ambiguity mitigation for solid-state weather radar

摘要

This paper addresses the blind-zone problem associated with pulse compression techniques used to overcome the low peak power of solid-state transmitters, as well as interpulse coding techniques that take advantage of high duty cycles to mitigate range-velocity ambiguities. The implementation of these techniques on the CSU Wideband Experimental X-band (WiBEX) radar is presented.
