Abstract

The optimal design of chirp radar waveforms has to satisfy conflicting requirements. Optimal solutions for different values of the compression ratio are considered, evaluated and compared with each other. A proposed solution has the advantage of guaranteeing low range sidelobes (less than -50 dB below the peak for compression ratios greater than 256) while maintaining the transmitter to operate in saturation. The “chirp” waveforms, with either constant or non-constant amplitude, are also candidates for the build-up - by combination - of “semideterministic” signals for the use in noise and MIMO radar.
