Abstract :
The main emphasis of this paper is placed on the problem of target ranging in multipath clutter environment. In the study, a ranging method with monopulse STLFMCW radar signal is put forward. Based on the joint detection results of the up-chirp and down-chirp, the method can eliminate other ghost targets and reduce early detection phenomena. The simulation result is shown to prove the effectiveness of the new method.
