Abstract :
In this paper a novel approach for the calculation of the radar range profile in OFDM radar systems is presented. The proposed algorithm operates directly on the modulation symbols and overcomes the typical drawbacks of correlation based baseband signal processing. An example system configuration as well as simulation results from a dedicated MatLab model will be presented and discussed.
