Q. Li et al., RADAR TARGET IDENTIFICATION USING A COMBINED EARLY-TIME LATE-TIME E-PULSE TECHNIQUE/, IEEE transactions on antennas and propagation, 46(9), 1998, pp. 1272-1278
The E-pulse technique has been applied in the past to both the early-
and the late time components of a transient radar response. While the
late-time E-pulse technique uses aspect-independent waveforms, the ear
ly-time E-pulse technique requires a separate waveform for each target
aspect angle and thus significantly more storage and processing time.
This paper discusses a combination of the two techniques that employs
the early-time technique to remove ambiguities generated from applica
tion of the late-time method. By narrowing the possible range of aspec
t angles of the potential targets, the early-time technique can be emp
loyed more efficiently.
