A Method of Generating Ultra-Short Radio Pulses

  • RADIO MEASUREMENTS
  • Published:
Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

A method of generating short nanosecond radio pulses from a sequence of long radio pulses is considered. It is shown that the proposed method may be used in the appropriate laboratory studies and tests of equipment intended for the reception and processing of wideband and ultra-wideband radio pulse signals. An algorithm and technique of generating short radio pulses are proposed. A detailed theoretical derivation of analytic expressions that describe the form of short radio pulses as well as a calculation of the permissible limits of the amplitude and phase errors of sinusoidal signals used to generate radio pulses are presented.
