An Examination of Range and Doppler Mismatch and Their Effects on Radar Modeling

A commonly accepted airborne phased array radar model simplifies the analytical derivation by assuming a waveform is perfectly matched in range and Doppler shift. This assumption means the matched lter output is e ectively constant for all possible received scatterer Doppler and range mismatches, greatly simplifying the analytical development from that point forward. This research removes the matched Doppler and range assumption and examines the e ects of several common waveforms on the mod...
