ABSTRACT:
A continuous wave radar system arrangement for improving the dynamic range of the radar receiver. The transmitted carrier signal is frequency modulated by a periodic sawtooth waveform causing a predetermined peak frequency shift. The radar receiver includes a plurality of separate receiving channels each selective to a small portion of the transmitted bandwidth. As the sawtooth modulation causes the carrier signal to sweep in frequency, the received leakage and clutter signals in the selective receiving channels are blocked momentarily and individually in each channel. The outputs of the separate receiving channels are combined to form a composite signal of the echo returns. Gaussian filters with quadratic phase compensation are used to provide the selectivity of the receiving channels.
