Description
Emerging digital RF and radio technologies have enabled the design, development, and demonstration of novel waveforms. Quasi-Orthogonal waveforms, in particular, have resulted in reciprocal bistatic and/or multi-channel capabilities which have the potential to dramatically improve performance of radar systems. The use of these algorithms in war-fighter focused applications should be quantified in terms of performance gains vs. more traditional applications. The effort described here will create an Army relevant scenario based modeling and simulation environment to quantify the performance gains achieved through implementation of quasi-orthogonal waveforms. Further, this effort will mature the technology readiness level of the waveforms from their current TRL 4 laboratory demonstration to TRL 6 simulation of relevant reciprocal bistatic environment for reduced SWAP-C hardware proof of concept in Phase 2.
