A novel algorithm of subsample TDE suitable for widehand signals is presented to improve the accuracy. This algorithm applies periodogram and parabolic interpolation to the cross correlation spectrum of band limited stochastic signals, and can obtain a continuous time delay estimator. Simulations are carried out to compare the performance of the proposed algorithm with that of other subsample TDE algorithms. Results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms other algorithms and reachs the Cramer-Rao lower bound （CRLB） at a high signal- to-noise ratio. For the wideband characteristic and the randomness of the transmitting signal, the proposed algo- rithm is suitable for the low probability of intercept radars.展开更多

The Doppler effect is widely used in radar signal processing. The transverse motion of the object cannot change the one-order phase of the echo, but the high-order phase. The high-order Doppler effect of the transverse moving target is presented and a new algorithm for obtaining the transverse velocity is given. The scalar velocity of a target moving steadily in any direction can be calculated with one-order and two-order items of the echo phase. The calculating method and simulating results are given. As the transverse speed is 900 km/h, the speed calculation error is less than 0. 06% if SNR of echo signal is higher than 0 dB.展开更多
