Complementary Coded Waveforms Sets in Marine Radar Application
Abstract
Complementary coded waveform and mismatched filter pairs sets are used. On the contrary with Golays matched waveform filter pair the mismatched waveform filter pair does exist for all N (number pulses in waveform). Using corresponding shapes of filters and proper chosen of waveforms Doppler tolerance may be provided. This property together with a good range side-lobs level suppression makes it’s attractable for use in marine radar.
