摘要: The output of each individual channel in multi-carrier system can be processed to detect moving targets by the approach used in tradition narrowband pulse Doppler (PD) radar and then using non-coherent integration to promote signal noise ratio (SNR). However, due to the difference of Doppler on sub-carriers, there occurs Doppler dispersion during non-coherent integration, which causes attenuation and extension on target’s amplitude. Especially, it can deteriorate performance of target detection under wideband multicarrier system or fast-moving target scene. In this paper, a modified Fourier transform kernel is proposed to solve Doppler dispersion for multi-carrier chirp signal. It can achieve accumulation at the same frequency point for the target’s Doppler of each subcarrier. The simulation results indicate that this method can effectively eliminate the integral loss caused by Doppler dispersion.

关键词: multi-carrier chirp, Doppler dispersion, pulse Doppler (PD), Doppler frequency shift (DFS)
