Abstract :
The compression of the radar signal is considered when the latter and the reference function are both coded at one bit. A sound theory is provided, which describes the performance of hardlimited signals for pulse compression, the effect of noise and the opportunity for fast convolution methods in time domain. The theory is supported by numerical examples on simulated data. Preliminary considerations regarding the use of dedicated hardware are included
