Abstract :
The design of a wideband digital radar system is presented. The system operates at S-band and uses a unique stretch-processing based architecture. The two fully digital receiver channels enhance the system dynamic range and enable the application of DSP algorithms. Experimental results verify that the system can achieve an in-band dynamic range of 60 dB across 600 MHz of instantaneous bandwidth.
