Monopulse Radar Target Distinction And Its Implementation On FPGA

Anuradha C, Ramesha K, Deepak B V N

Abstract


Target distinction in mono-pulse radar has its importance in navy, defence and space craft fields etc. The distinction between the actual and faulty targets is done. The distinguishing of the targets is done by analysing the periodicity of the reflected signal. Here discrimination is done by performing the series of operation on the reflected signal.The faulty target considered here are chaff and corner reflector. The target discrimination concept is implemented on FPGA using the VHDL code. This implementation includes the Xilinx, Chip scope pro and Spartan 6.
