  • Abstract
    The processing of waveforms that are not LFM requires that the bandwidth of the signal be considered. Pseudo-random noise coded waveforms are now being used by cellular telephones and are being considered for use in radar systems. With the prevalence of digital signal processing (DSP) hardware, it is appears that the radar community has accepted that DSP equipment can process these waveforms. They can, but the use of the fast Fourier transform (FFT) doubles the range sidelobes. This paper discusses how processing these waveforms can alter their capabilities
