Range sidelobe suppression for OFDM-integrated radar and communication signal
To improve the RadCom system of performing both data transmission and radar-sensing functions, here a waveform design method for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signal is proposed to solve the problem of high range sidelobe level in ...

CMB polarimetry with BICEP: instrument characterization, calibration, and performance [PDF]
BICEP is a ground-based millimeter-wave bolometric array designed to target the primordial gravity wave signature on the polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) at degree angular scales. Currently in its third year of operation at the South

Comparing the effect of aperture extension on the peak sidelobe level of sparse arrays [PDF]
This paper compares the performance of Uniform Linear Arrays (ULA), Minimum Redundancy Arrays (MRA) and Co-prime Sensor Arrays (CSA) in terms of the Peak Sidelobe Level (PSL) of their beampatterns. A ULA distributes its sensor elements equidistantly on a line, achieving a PSL of -13.5dB [Van Trees, 2002]. Sparse arrays span the equivalent aperture as a

Sidelobe Suppression with Resolution Maintenance for SAR Images via Sparse Representation
Severe sidelobe interference is one of the major problems with traditional Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imaging. In the observation scene of sea areas, the number of targets in the observation scene is so small that targets can be regarded as sparse ...

Angular dependence of 12-kHz seafloor acoustic backscatter [PDF]
The angular dependence of seafloor acoustic backscatter,measured with a 12‐kHz multi narrow‐beam echo‐sounder at two sites in the central North Pacific with water depths of 1500 and 3100 m, respectively, has been determined for incidence angles between 0°

Analysis of Non Linear Frequency Modulation (NLFM) Waveforms for Pulse Compression Radar
Non Linear Frequency Modulation (NLFM) method can suppress the peak sidelobe level without additional windowing function. NLFM doesn’t require any weighting function because it has inbuilt one.

Ultrasound array transmitter architecture with high timing resolution using embedded phase-locked loops [PDF]
Coarse time quantization of delay profiles within ultrasound array systems can produce undesirable sidelobes in the radiated beam profile. The severity of these sidelobes is dependent upon the magnitude of phase quantization error - the deviation from ...

On Measuring Accurate 21-cm Line Profiles with the Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope
We use observational data to show that 21 cm line profiles measured with the Green Bank Telescope (GBT) are subject to significant inaccuracy. These include ~10% errors in the calibrated gain and significant contribution from distant sidelobes.

Phased-MIMO Radar: A Tradeoff Between Phased-Array and MIMO Radars [PDF]
We propose a new technique for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar with colocated antennas which we call phased-MIMO radar. The new technique enjoys the advantages of MIMO radar without sacrificing the main advantage of phased-array radar which ...
