Nonlinear Frequency Modulated Signal Design

摘要

The signal time-frequency structure designing is the important problem of radar system solution optimisation. The radar ambiguity function is the very useful signal characteristic that enables to know the signal potential possibilities. The effective numerical methods of the radar ambiguity function calculation give possibility for synthesis of the radar signal having expected features. The synthesis method concerning the nonlinear frequency modulation radar signal is presented in the paper. For the radar ambiguity function calculation the Zak transform is used in the method. The nonlinear frequency modulation signal model was described in which application limitations were taken into account. Examples of simulation research results are presented as a comment of the considerations.
