correlator for radar

Hi every body, Now I am working on radar receiver designing. The radar transmits 10MHz 31-bit pn code multiplex with 10kHz sine wave. At the receiver side, It has 1) the 31-bit pn code and 2) highly noise affected and delayed the transmitted signal Now I want to design a digital correlator to ...

Ask a question about UWB through wall radar

Hi!all I am perform on UWB through wall radar research. The most advanced through wall radar system is the "Xaver 800" produced by Israel Camero-Tech Ltd. The "Xaver 800" used the ultra short pluse with bandwidth about 7GHz. How to sample and digitalize such wideband signals? If i must get a AD ...

Bistatic Radar Tracking with EKF

Hello I designed a bistatic radar tracker with Extended Kalman Fileter. The model I that used is the constant velocity model. The measurements are: Doppler rang, Azimuth and Doppler frequency. the rang & Doppler measurements' covariance noise is low, but the Azimuth is too noisy. The state vector...

FFT and number of samples..A "simple" doubt?

Hi, I'm supposed to analize a received signal on a Doppler continuous wave radar for an university practice. I only have a file with samples taken at 20KHz. The only information I know about the radar is its center frequency (24GHz) and trasmitted signal power. The recieved signal values ...

Digitizing waveforms from a 2-5 GHz radar

Hi all. For some reason I posted this question on sci.engr.radar+sonar without crossposting to comp.dsp. I am sure there are somebody here who have some advice. I have been invited to comment on a non-mainstream radar application. From what I can see of the basic prospect, there are some a...

Doubt about radar beamforming

Hello, I'm developing a radar project but I have a problem. The project consists in the position (elevation and azimuth) and velocity estimation of a target using a 2D array antenna. The DOA of the signal reflected by the target has to be estimated using beamforming. I'm reading something about DOA...

Question about reducing noise in a radar receiver

Hi, I have to find a new radar receiver design to increase the SNR. The signal bandwidth is 2 MHz (a CW Phase modulated signal). With a common receiver design (receiver BW at 2 MHz too), the SNR is too low for detection. To increase the SNR, I can reduce the noise power in my receiver by reducing...

passive radar theory refrence needed

Re: Off-The-Shelf UWB Radars?
