Abstract :
The conical scan step-frequency radar waveform has the ability of both high range resolution and angle measurement. The characteristics and structure of this waveform are discussed in detail, and the close coupling process method which can estimate the angles of close range targets is given. This is proved by computer simulation and practical experiments. The effects of noise and velocity are also discussed
