Abstract:

Radar signals are generated to have signal characteristics that define multiple sub-pulses in each of a plurality of pulse repetition intervals (PRIs) of a single radar dwell. Electromagnetic radiation is emitted according to the radar signals and the emitted electromagnetic radiation is sensed as radar return signals over a receive interval in each PRI. Coherent integration is performed on a set of the radar return signals and non-coherent integration is performed on another set of the radar return signals.
