Radar System Performance Modeling, Second Edition

| 1. | What are the three major characteristics of radar waveforms? |
|
| 2. | What range resolution is provided by a waveform having a bandwidth of 10 MHz? What is the duration of a CW pulse with this range resolution? |
|
| 3. | What are the frequency resolution and the radial-velocity resolution of a waveform having a frequency of 3.3 GHz (S band) and a duration of 50 ms? If this is a CW pulse, what is the range resolution? |
|
| 4. | For a linear FM waveform having a pulse compression ratio of 1,000 and the duration and frequency from Problem 3, what are the range and radial-velocity resolutions? |
|
| 5. | For the linear FM waveform described in Problem 4, and assuming the waveform frequency increases with time, what is the range offset produced by a target with a radial velocity of 300 m/s? |
|
| 6. | An L-band (1.3 GHz) phase-coded waveform employs 500 subpulses, each a CW pulse with a duration of 1 s. What are the waveform duration, the range resolution, the radial-velocity resolution and the approximate peak sidelobe level? |
|
| 7. | For a pulse-burst waveform with subpulse spacing of 100 s, what is the spacing of range ambiguities? If the subpulses are chirp waveforms having duration 1 s and bandwidth 100 MHz, what is the range resolution? If the waveform consists of 200 subpulses at X band (9.5 GHz), what is the spacing of the ambiguities in radial velocity, and what is the radial-velocity resolution? |
|
| 8. | What is the unambiguous range for... |
