Pulse doppler radar with a variable pulse repetition frequency

TLDR
In this article, a modified coherent integration is proposed for a pulse Doppler radar system with variable pulse repetition frequency, where the reflected pulses are subject to a simplified vectorial addition by the use of a number of filters.
Abstract
A pulse Doppler radar system with variable pulse repetition frequency has a coherent integrator to which the reflected pulses are supplied in order to avoid deterioration of the indication of a moving target given over-the-horizon reception. The coherent integrator subjects the reflected pulses to a simplified vectorial addition by the use of a number of filters. A precondition for the modified coherent integration is a staggering of the pulse repetition periods such that their sums formed over successive pulse repetition periods are constant, and a phase reference for the signal amplitudes is obtained such that the phase difference is equal to zero after every second pulse repetition.

Time domain radio transmission system

TL;DR: In this article, a time domain communications system is proposed where a broadband of time-spaced signals, essentially monocycle-like signals, are derived from applying stepped-in-amplitude signals to a broadband antenna, in this case, a reverse bicone antenna.

Signal processing and systematic phase coding for mitigation of range and velocity ambiguities in Doppler weather radars

TL;DR: In this article, a method for resolving range ambiguities and separating overlaid signals in a Doppler weather radar is proposed, which consists of a special deterministic code for phases of the transmitted pulsed, and associated decoding and processing of return signals.

Stagger compensated moving target detector

TL;DR: In this paper, a moving target detector (MTD) in a radar system uses corrected weighting coefficients to compensate for pulse stagger effect on transmitted pulses, which are sampled when the radar is switched to a test mode.

Pulse radar apparatus

TL;DR: In this article, the threshold level of the first comparator is maximally equal to that of the second comparator on the receipt of each two sequential video signals with an interval Delta T, the correlator causes that the gate circuit blocks the access to a PPI for the corresponding video signals supplied via the delay element.
