Today’s radar systems consist of RF electronics, signal processors, and appropriate signal processing software. While RF electronics development is focused on increased measurement bandwidth and higher data acquisition speed, the main challenge for signal processing units is finding improved algorithms to take more and more tasks from RF electronics.
In this educational note by Rohde and Schwarz, engineers interested in performing tests using pulsed or chirped signals can learn more about pulsed Radar signal generation and the signal processing capabilities of modern Radar systems, while discovering how to set up a complete Radar system with appropriate test instruments.
