Abstract :
Methods are presented for combining charge-coupled device (CCD) and surface acoustic wave (SAW) techniques to advantage for processing coherent radar signals in order to extract target range and velocity information. Experiments have validated a scheme of combined discrete CCD´s to form an analog store with orthogonal input and output sequencing, feeding time-compressed data to a SAW spectrum analyzer. A design for an integrated CCD store is presented.
