Overview

Recent advances in radar technology feature wide modulation bandwidths for high resolution target analysis. In particular FM-CW radars can have bandwidths of 500 MHz or more to achieve resolutions of a few tenths of a meter. Short pulse radars can also have wide frequency bandwidths for high resolution radars. Wide band analysis of such signals is needed to process the information coherently. Real-time spectrum analyzers feature acquisition of pulses with short PRIs, but have been limited in the real-time bandwidth available to analyze such signals. During this paper, new measurement approaches to measure wide band Radar and EW systems will be explored, including new advances in signal identification and analysis.

Alan Wolke is an RF Applications Engineer with Tektronix, and has been with the company since July 2006 supporting Real-Time Spectrum Analyzers and their applications. Alan has a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering from New Jersey Institute of Technology, and has spent the majority of his career prior to Tektronix in the fiber-optic datacom and telecom fields, as well as the hard disk drive component field.
