In radar or sonar applications, linear chirps are the most typically used signals to achieve pulse compression. The pulse being of finite length, the amplitude is a rectangle function.

Pulse compression is a method for improving the range resolution of pulse radar. This method is also known as intra-pulse modulation (modulation on pulse, MOP) because the transmitted …

This example shows the effects of pulse compression, where a transmitted pulse is modulated and correlated with the received signal. Pulse compression is used in radar and sonar systems …

Jul 21, 2025 · Traditional pulsed radar systems transmit high-power RF pulses. The width of the pulse (or the length of time that the pulse is “on”) affects radar resolution, or how well it can …

Linear FM pulse compression waveforms can be processed and generated at low power levels by digital methods, when A / D converters are available with the required bandwidth and number …

Jul 20, 2025 · One of the most powerful techniques in modern radar is pulse compression. It allows radar engineers to achieve high range resolution without the need for high peak …

Jun 22, 2024 · Today we talk about the idea of pulse compression and the role it plays in target detection. As opposed to a Continuous-Wave (CW) radar, a pulsed radar transmits a short …

16.5.3 “SINGLE-PASS” PROCESSING Certain pulse compression radars use analog or digital processes to perform range compression prior to Doppler processing. When a programmable …

Sep 18, 2025 · Pulse compression is a fundamental technique that enables radar systems to transmit long-duration, low-peak-power signals while achieving both power gain and high …

Pulse compression techniques are used in radar systems to avail the benefits of large range detection capability of long duration pulse and high range resolution capability of short …
