Producing Pulse Compression Codes with Proper Auto Correlation Function, Regarding Pulse Shape

Using radar with short pulses has some advantages like increasing range resolution and Doppler tolerance. Reducing pulse width has some disadvantages in addition to benefits, like peak power problem in power amplifiers. Coding and pulse compression in radar signals have an advantage of short pulses and also solve peak power problem. In this paper we will show that deleting some bits from pulse compression code like maximum length code, leading to code with proper merit factor. Designing codes is usually performed with assumption of rectangular pulse shape. Our target in this paper is producing good pulse compression codes in non-rectangular pulse.
