Use of P3-Coded Transmission Waveforms to Generate Synthetic Aperture Radar Images
Article (669.7Kb)Abstract
This paper develops methods for using low probability
of intercept (LPI) transmission waveforms in order to
generate synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery. This analysis
considers a specific transmission waveform based upon P3
codes in order to give phase shift keying (PSK) modulation.
A matched correlation receiver is used to form SAR imagery
corresponding to the transmitted P3-modulated waveforms. This
analysis demonstrates the ability to generate SAR images based
upon simulated radar measurements collected by a notional
radar platform that can transmit and receive P3 waveforms. This
work analyzes the resulting spotlight-mode SAR images that are
generated using the P3 transmission waveforms.
