Abstract:
The linear frequency modulated (LFM) signal is broadly frayed in practical radar systems. A weighting function is required for LFM to curtail the side lobes, which considerably decreases the SNR. In a pursuit to attain low autocorrelation sidelobes without applying weighting function, a different kind of radar waveform is needed that exhibits high SNR and high range resolution. In this paper, a non-linear frequency modulated (NLFM) waveform is investigated. Different parameters for the NLFM and LFM are compared with the help of computer simulations. The comparative study is performed. Furthermore, bispectrum is also analyzed and used for studying various performance parameters of both NLFM and LFM waveforms.
