Abstract :
The design of radar waveforms has made significant advances over the past two decades. This has been prompted both by increasingly stringent radar performance requirements and the development of high-speed digital processing hardware. The purpose of this paper is to review two specific examples of modern waveform design, and to attempt to make some predictions for the future
