The wideband chirp signal is split up into several compressed subpulses. Then the fast Fourier transform (FFT) is used to reconstruct the high resolution range profile ( HR- RP) in a relative short computation time. For multi-frame, pulse Doppler (PD) process is performed to obtain the two-dimension range-Doppler (R-D) high resolution profile. Simulations and field ex- perimental results show that the proposed method can provide high-quality target profile over a large range window in a short computation time and has the promising potential for long-time coherent in- tegration.展开更多

The time bandwidth product (TBWP) of the linearly chirped waveform is improved based on optical microwave frequency multiplying combined with temporal synthesis. An integrated dual-polarization modulator and an optical filter are utilized to perform frequency doubling operation by generating an orthogonally polarized optical signal, which consists of an optical carrier in one polarization direction and a second-order chirped optical sideband in another.

The TBWP of the linearly chirped signal is improved from 3.2 to 819.2. The proposed method features arbitrary large TBWP, and it can be used in a radar system to improve its resolution. </div>展开更多
