  • Abstract
    A prototype real time cepstrum analyzer incorporating surface acoustic wave (SAW), Fourier transform processors is reported. This system offers sophisticated wideband signal processing for radar, sonar, and communications applications. Practical results demonstrate its capabilities when analyzing bandwidths in excess of 10 MHz in a few microseconds with simulated pulsed RF waveforms in the presence of multipath echoes. Pulse duration, repetition interval, and binary code length are resolved and the potential to characterize unknown chirp waveforms is briefly reported.
