Abstract

This paper describes the designing of a reliable monostatic pulse radar system with improved signal to noise ratio. The waveform transmitted by the radar is varied and the effect of the waveform variation is noted on important radar parameters like peak transmit power and radar range. Also, the validity of the radar range equation for various waveforms has been verified. All the simulations have been done in MATLAB and useful conclusions are drawn about the effect of pulse integration on the reliability of a monostatic pulse radar system and the effect of waveform variation on peak transmit power and radar range.
