Simple mismatched filter for binary pulse compression code with small PSL and small S/N loss [radar]

We present several binary pulse compression codes to greatly reduce sidelobes while suffering only a small S/N loss. We twice repeat a simple, easy to implement procedure that was first introduced by B.L. Lewis to reduce sidelobes for the polyphase codes of the P1 and P4 codes. We estimate the performance of the newly found binary pulse compression codes estimated by simulation, and find satisfactory results.
