The matched filter is one of the most important elements in the pulse compression technique. Pulse compressed signal enhances the interference immunity of a radar operating with such a signal. A model of the matched filter for a Barker coded phase modulated signal was synthesized using the Simulink tool of the Matlab software. Interference signals were feed to the input of the matched filter and output signals were measured. The matched filters degree of suppression of these interference signals was assessed. Conclusions were made about the jamming immunity of radars operating with Barker coded phase modulated signal.

The immunity to the interference of a radar operating with a pulse compression signal is an important feature. The matched filter is one of the elements of the radar, providing resistance to interference. A model of a matched filter to chirp signal has synthesized using the Simulink tool of the Matlab software. Two types of interference signals have fed to the matched filter input, and the output signals are measured. The matched filters degree of suppression against these two interference signals has been assessed. Inferences about the interference immunity of the radars operating with compressed signals have been made.

The pulse compression technique uses a matched filter to extract an echo signal in the radars receiver. A model of a matched filter for a chirp signal was synthesized using the Simulink Tool of the MATLAB software. Pulse jamming and chirp jamming signals were feed to the input of the matched filter. The output signals were measured. The matched filters degree of suppression of these jamming signals was assessed. Conclusions were made about the jamming immunity of a radar operating with a Chirp matched filter.

Abstract The use of low-power solid-state transmitters in weather radar to keep costs down requires a pulse compression technique that maintains an adequate minimum detectable signal. However, wideband pulse compression filters will partly reduce the system’s sensitivity performance. In this paper, a sensitivity enhancement system (SES) for pulse compression weather radar is developed to mitigate this issue. SES uses a dual-waveform transmission scheme and an adaptive pulse compression filter. The waveforms’ diversity can be done in the frequency domain or the time domain. The adaptive filter is designed based on the self-consistency between signal returns from the two waveforms. Analysis based on radar-simulated data and observations from NASA’s dual-frequency dual-polarized Doppler radar (D3R) shows that by using SES, the system sensitivity can be improved by 7–10 dB when compared to that of the conventional matched filter.

Range resolution in radar can be achieved by splitting the long pulse of high energy into the high bandwidth of short pulses using pulse compression technique. Frequency modulation (Linear frequency modulation (LFM)) signal is used to improve range resolution. To get better range resolution, frequency step is introduced between a train of LFM pulses known as stepped frequency pulse train (the SFPT). The SFPT suffers from grating lobes when the product of sub-pulse duration and frequency step becomes more than one. The grating lobes and sidelobes present in the vicinity of the mainlobe. It can cause the false alarm detection and hide the small targets. In this work, Multi-Objective Grey Wolf Algorithm (MOGWO) is used to set the parameters of SFPT to mitigate the grating lobes and minimize the sidelobes at the matched filter output. Trade-off solutions between sidelobes versus grating lobes and mainlobe width versus sidelobes are obtained using the Pareto front for different ranges of SFPT parameters.

Interrupted sampling repeater jamming (ISRJ) is becoming more widely used in electronic countermeasures (ECM), thanks to the development of digital radio frequency memory (DRFM). Radar electronic counter-countermeasure (ECCM) is much more difficult when the jamming signal is coherent with the emitted signal. Due to the intermittent transmission feature of ISRJ, the energy accumulation of jamming on the matched filter shows a ‘ladder’ characteristic, whereas the real target signal is continuous. As a consequence, the time delay and distribution of the jamming slice can be obtained based on searching the truncated-matched-filter (TMF) matrix. That is composed of pulse compression (PC) results under matched filters with different lengths. Based on the above theory, this paper proposes a truncated matched filter method by the reconstruction of jamming slices to suppress ISRJ of linear frequency modulation (LFM) radars. The numerical simulations indicate the effectiveness of the proposed method and validate the theoretical analysis.
