Abstract :
Radar range sidelobes, associated with pulse compression, are often reduced through the use of mismatched filters. We propose to blank the remaining sidelobes by using two or more mismatched filters, whose sidelobes are designed to peak at different delays. Design methods and simulation results are presented.
