Optimization design of NLFM signal and its pulse compression simulation

To meet the requirement of modern radar, a kind of NLFM signal is designed in this paper based on Taylor window function, which has the low PSLL and high Doppler tolerance. The methods to synthesize and optimize waveforms are presented. Simulation results of pulse compression for different Doppler frequencies are provided. The proposed signal has been applied to the practical engineering.
