Radar signal real-time detection method

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a radar signal real-time detection method, which is characterized by comparing an average amplitude of N sampling points before a certain moment with the amplitude of the sampling point at the moment.
Abstract: The invention relates to a radar signal real-time detection method. The method is characterized by comparing an average amplitude of N sampling points before a certain moment with the amplitude of thesampling point at the moment, and if the amplitudes of the plurality of sampling points after starting of the certain moment are continuously a certain value higher than the average amplitude in a previous certain period of time, considering that a signal rising edge exists at the moment; otherwise, if the amplitudes of the plurality of continuous sampling points after a certain moment is startedare a certain value lower than the previous average amplitude, considering that a falling edge exists at the moment; and when both the falling edge and the rising edge exist, intercepting a signal part existing in data immediately. Whether a signal exists is detected in a mode of judging the rising edge and the falling edge in a time domain, and an effect of detecting the signal in real time under a passive condition can be achieved by setting reasonable parameters and thresholds.

TL;DR: In this article, a system and method that uses a digital oscilloscope to digitize a waveform and then loads the digitized waveform into a computer is described, where the computer scans the waveform data locating leading edges by comparing data to a rolling average and a noise threshold and locating tops and bottoms if the pulse is a negative going pulse by compared data to slope criteria until a trailing edge is discovered.
Abstract: The invention is a system and method that uses a digital oscilloscope to digitize a waveform and then loads the digitized waveform into a computer. The computer scans the waveform data locating leading edges by comparing data to a rolling average and a noise threshold and locating tops and bottoms if the pulse is a negative going pulse by comparing data to slope criteria until a trailing edge is discovered. The trailing edge defines the end of the pulse, the immediately preceding leading edge defines the beginning of the pulse and the pulse height and this allows the pulse characteristics to be determined. This discovered pulse is removed from the waveform by setting all data values in the pulse to the pulse baseline value, and the scan for leading edges, pulse tops and a trailing edge is performed again to isolate and characterize another pulse. This cycle of detection, analysis and removal continues until the end of data is encountered before a pulse is discovered.

TL;DR: A laser rangefinder device based on pulsed time-of-flight (TOF) distance measurement techniques was constructed and tested and is capable of measuring the time position, rise time and pulse width of incoming optical pulses with ps precision in the amplitude range of more than 1: 50 000.
Abstract: A laser rangefinder device based on pulsed time-of-flight (TOF) distance measurement techniques was constructed and tested. Key blocks of the system are the integrated receiver channel and the integrated time-to-digital converter (TDC) fabricated in a 0.35-um CMOS technology. The receiver-TDC chip set is capable of measuring the time position, rise time and pulse width of incoming optical pulses with ps precision in the amplitude range of more than 1: 50 000. The timing detection is based on leading edge detection in the receiver channel, and the amplitude-dependent timing error is compensated for by utilizing the multichannel TDC. A measurement distance of 100 m is achieved to a target with a reflectance of about 10% at the signal level of SNR = 6, with an optical output power and receiver aperture of 12 W and 18 mm, respectively.
