Abstract :
Presents several new classes of aperiodic waveforms suitable for FFT-based spectral analysis of moderately overspread radar targets. In previous work, the authors explained the principle of operation with a particular code. They now provide codes with higher performance as well as a design rule for the user to apply these codes to real targets
