A high-speed parallel signal processor for a PRC phase-coded CW radar

This paper describes an overview of a high-speed parallel signal processor that has been developed for a PRC phase-coded CW radar. It is a MIMD machine that consists of three subprocessors. Each subprocessor performs the beam signal processing tasks, and the architecture of the subprocessor is a static multi-function macropipeline. The processing speed of the signal processor is 2400 million operations per second (MOPS). The subclutter visibility (SCV) reaches 114 dB.
