A triple 2-of-3 pulse repetition frequency (PRF) scheme is presented for medium PRF pulsed-Doppler airborne radars, and a real-time method is developed that searches for optimal or sub-optimal PRF sets according to momentary battle situations. The effectiveness of the real-time search method of PRF sets is demonstrated by the experimental results obtained using simulated data.

Airborne radar usually use MPRF(medium PRF) waveforms to detect and track look-down or all-directions air-to-air targets. To use MPRF waveforms, airborne radar have to operate optimal PRF schedules and select optimal PRFs able to detect look-down air-to-air targets, overcoming look-down clutter and resolving range/velocity ambiguities. In this paper, we propose a real-time search method for the optimal(and sub-optimal) PRFs able to detect and track targets in real-time change of situation for MPRF pulsed-Doppler airborne radars.

This paper is a study on PRF selection method to accurately detect the target in the target tracking mode of airborne radar. The proposed methods are an 'optimization' method to select the closest to the center of the allowable zone considering the uncertainty of the target distance and velocity prediction and a 'quasi-optimization' method to improve the real time performance. In addition, the characteristics of the proposed methods are compared and analyzed through cost function and calculation time.
