Abstract :
Signal processing distortion degrades radar performance with respect to target data accuracy, ambiguity and resolution. A measure of the loss in performance is obtained by the development of a modified radar ``uncertainty function´´ which results from the presence of time- and frequency-domain distortions in the system. Losses due to the major sources of distortion are evaluated and several compensation techniques discussed.
