Abstract

Ultra-wideband(UWB) radar is widely used in many penetration radar applications, such as ground-penetrating radar and foliage-penetrating radar, because it has many advantages in detecting concealed objects. One type of UWB radar system is random noise radar, which many be robust to jamming environment. However conventional random noise radar requires high-speed analog-to-digital convertor(ADC) for matched filtering. In this thesis, a pseudo-random noise radar system that maintains anti-jamming characteristics but does not require high-speed ADC is researched. and The UWB system is implemented in a low frequency system, and its performance has been demonstrated by experiment, which proves the concept of the proposed pseudo-random noise radar system.

초 광대역 레이더는 숨겨진 물체를 찾는데 많은 장점을 가지고 있기 때문에, 지표 투과 레이더나 수풀 투과 레이더와 같은 투과레이더에 널리 이용되고 있다. 초 광대역 레이더의 종류 중에 하나인 잡음 레이더는 간섭 환경에 강한 특성을 가지고 있다. 그러나 일반적인 잡음레이더는 고속의 아날로그 디지털 변환기가 필요하여 광대역 레이더로 제작하는데 어려움이 있다. 본 논문에서는 간섭에 강한 특징을 가지면서 고속의 아날로그 디지털 변환기가 필요하지 않은 가상 잡음 레이더 시스템이 연구되었다. 또한, 초 광대역 시스템이 저주파에서 구현되었고, 이는 실험으로 성능이 검증되었으며, 제안된 가상잡음 레이더 시스템의 개념도 증명되었다.
