Title :
Implementation of nonlinear FM pulse compression filters using surface wave delay lines
Abstract :
The synthesis of a surface wave pulse compression filter with a non-linear FM dispersion relation to reduce time sidelobes is described. The significance of this synthesis is discussed and a comparison of the use of nonlinear FM and amplitude weighting of linear FM is made with regard to surface wave synthesis.
