Synchronization Of Bistatic Radar Using Chaotic Amplitude And Frequency Modulated Signals, Chandra Sekhar Pappu Jan 2015

Synchronization Of Bistatic Radar Using Chaotic Amplitude And Frequency Modulated Signals, Chandra Sekhar Pappu

Open Access Theses & Dissertations

The purpose of this work is to develop a synchronization scheme for bistatic radar that uses a 3-D chaotic system to generate and process wideband AM and FM signals, which allows for the extraction of high range-resolution information from targets. For AM bistatic radar, the setup includes a drive oscillator at the transmitter and a response oscillator at the receiver. The challenge is synchronizing the response oscillator to the drive oscillator with a scaled version of the transmitted signal sr(t, x) = αs t(t, x), where x is a chaotic state variable and α is a scaling factor. Here, α …
