ABSTRACT:
Signal processing wherein signals are processed using chirp-Z-transform (CZT) techniques and charge transfer device (CTD) transversal filters. The chirp weighting signal may be amplitude modulated to achieve signal apodization and may be generated by impulsing a CTD complex filter having an appropriate impulse response. Signal premultiplication using a one-bit quantized chirp signal is described.
Application of these techniques to doppler range processing apparatus wherein radar returns are premultiplied to provide up-chirp multiplied time samples prior to being inputted into a CTD range buffer. Each bit of the CTD has an associated CTD chirp-Z-transform complex filter the outputs from each of which are summed and squared. The range bins and the associated complex filters are provided on a common semiconductor chip together with peripheral circuitry.
