  • Optimum matched illumination-reception radar
    Patent number: 5175552
    Abstract: The signal-to-noise ratio of a received radar echo is maximized by maximizing the received energy E of the echo. The energy E is maximized when the transmitted waveform s(t) is chosen so that ##EQU1## is maximized, where y(t) is the echo signal echoing from the target.
