Abstract
A radar that transmits continuous band-limited random noise is considered. The target impulse response is constructed from the cross correlation of th e received signal with the transmitted noise signal, The system uses a fixe d-length delay line and relies on the target movement through the range gat e. Range profiles of different automobiles are measured with this system an d used in a target recognition example.
