New Method of Velocity Compensation in a Stepped-Frequency Testing Radar

A solution on velocity compensation for a dual-channel stepped-frequency testing radar is presented. The target´s radial velocity was estimated real-timely by using high resolution range profiles of the target from two bands respectively, and then compensation was carried out to get the target´s real location for automatic target range tracking. An effective method to calculate target´s real location avoiding complex computation in direct compensation procedure is discussed. Experimental results are also given and analyzed in this paper.
