  • Abstract
    This paper considers an application of correlation techniques to radar systems. One particular form of the system, the frequency modulated continuous wave radar, is described and it is shown that with this form of radar, correlation can be obtained by a combination of mixing and spectral analysis. A method of performing the spectral analysis using a digital fast Fourier transform spectral analyser is also described.
