Target Detection

Target detection means to illuminate the target and then calculate its parameters, such a range, speed, azimuth, and altitude. The target range can be obtained using one of several methods: by calculating the time between the detected target echo and the transmitted wave, then calculating the difference in frequency between the received echo and the transmitted wave in the case of linear frequency modulation, and finally calculating the differential phase of the double detection of an echo obtained using two transmissions of different frequencies.

We propose a waveform that includes Linear frequency modulation and non linear frequency modulation wave applicable for MIMO radar. The wave form consists of three segments where the boundary segment consists of LFM content and the middle segment consists of NLFM. The time frequency component in the middle segment is controlled. The range and Doppler side lobe suppression is improved. The genetic algorithm is implemented to suppress the side lobes in the auto correlation and cross correlation functions. The performance is analysed by using ambiguity function.
