Abstract :
In radar systems, the stepped frequency waveform is commonly used for achieving high range resolution capabilities. The waveform and system parameters, such as the pulse length and range gate, must be suitably chosen in order to reconstruct the range profile correctly. In this paper, the authors propose a method for the correct choice of such parameters. Moreover, the application of such method is tested on simulated data in a Surface Movement Radar (SMR) scenario.
