Abstract
Airborne radar system performance primarily depends on the target characteristics and the type of waveform used. Based on the type of waveform used, target detection, range resolution, doppler resolution and peak to side lobe level ratio (PSLR) can be improved in a radar system. Hence for a radar engineer choosing a proper waveform is critical in order to meet the system performance in different target environment conditions. This paper focuses on designing a suitable radar waveform for sea environment considering Sea clutter, Sea states, doppler and Swerling target models in X Band. In order to design a waveform under different Sea environments, an end to end radar system will be modelled, simulated and verified the system performance in Matlab. PSLR, Integrated Side Lobe ratio (ISLR), range resolution and target detection will be considered as performance metrics for the design of the waveform.
