Abstract :
Feasibility of chirp-subpulse stepped frequency signal to implement high range resolution at low altitude is educed through analysis of its amplitude and frequency spectrum in this paper. Method of chirp-subpulse stepped frequency signal range profile based wavelet transform with nicer locality and approximation on time-frequency domain is brought forward. Compared with traditional IDFT, range resolution capability is improved further on multi-path problem by using this method, and thus makes locating and tracking for targets at low altitude penetration more feasible.
