Simulation and Veriication
of Pulse Doppler Radar Systems
Application Note
Introduction
Modern radar systems that operate in environments with
strong clutter, noise and jamming require advanced digital
signal processing techniques. Direct analysis techniques
often fail when designing such complex systems. Although
simulation is often used, most simulation tools do not have
enough models and integration capability to handle modern
radar systems.
This application note proposes a solution to this dilemma, a system-design methodology that uses
SystemVue. Examples will be used to illustrate how advanced Pulse Doppler (PD) surveillance
radar with moving target detection (MTD) and a constant false alarm rate (CFAR) processor can
be designed by using a platform in the SystemVue tool. To ensure the design works properly, the
platform can be connected to instrumentation for system test and veriic |
