Millimeter wave noise radar technology

We present the main results of theoretical and experimental development of the NRT (noise radar technology) for the MM waveband which has been studied at the Laboratory of Nonlinear Dynamics of Electronic Systems (LNDES) of the Institute of Radiophysics and Electronics, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine since 1990. The key points of the NRT developed are the use of a chaotic waveform generator as a source of noise signals and a digital-analog correlator with an electronically controllable delay line as the main part of the correlation receiver of the noise radar. Also, so called double spectral processing of the noise continuous waveform has been used for the development of the noise radars and range measurement devices.
