  • Abstract
    In this paper, we study the resolution properties of linear FM pulses (chirps). Based on the ambiguity surface properties of chirp pulses, we propose a transmission strategy and a processing algorithm that has better delay-Doppler resolution than traditional matched filtering. It is shown that the improvement in resolution is accompanied by a small degradation in detection performance.
