  • Abstract
    The passive coherent location system requires clean reference signal. However, multipath effect may significantly influence its quality and therefore lower the overall performance of the radar. In this paper the Constant Modulus Algorithm is used to enhance the FM reference signal by channel equalization. Both simulation and measurement results are presented.
