Abstract

We describe an acousto-optic signal processor which performs both pulse compression processing and Doppler filtering of pulse-Doppler radar signals. The processor combines a wideband space integrating acousto-optic pulse compression technique with a narrowband acousto-optic time integrating spectrum analysis technique to resolve target range and velocity simultaneously. Using a two-dimensional architecture, both pulse compression and Doppler filtering are performed in a potentially small, low power, package.
