Method for simulating noisy radar target echoes

摘要

A method for determining target echo detection efficacy of a signal processing algorithm of a radar system involves generating a simulated noise complex envelope sequence, generating a simulated radar target echo signal complex envelope pulse sequence and adding the simulated noise complex envelope sequence to the simulated radar target echo signal complex envelope pulse sequence, thereby producing simulated noisy radar target echo signal complex envelope sequence. The simulated noisy radar target echo signal complex envelope sequence is inputted into the signal processing algorithm and the output of the signal processing algorithm is analyzed to determine target echo detection efficacy of the signal processing algorithm.
