Abstract :
The key element of a wideband radar pulse compression system generates a linear frequency versus time characteristic which is usable for either pulse expansion or compression. Data are presented on the performance of a 500-MHz acoustic diffraction grating delay line with linear dispersive characteristics utilizing a design bandwidth of 250 MHz and dispersion of 1.0 µs.
