Time: 3hours Max. Marks:60

Answer any FIVE questions

All questions carry equal marks
---

1.a) Draw the block diagram of a Radar and explain each block.
b) What type of information is available from Radar echo? How it is
related to the performance of Radar?

2.a) Show that the out of the matched filter to be proportional to the
input signal cross-correlated with a replica of the transmitted
signal.
b) Explain how to construct a non white noise matched filter.

3. Explain the following methods briefly to detect the radar signal.

a) Neyman- Pearson observer.
b) Likelihood-ratio receiver.
c) Inverse probability receiver.

4.a) Draw the ideal ambiguity diagram and explain how it is used to
assess the properties of transmitted waveform.
b) Draw and explain the ambiguity diagram for a single frequency
modulated pulse.

5.a) What are the applications of short pulse to Radar?

b) Draw the schematic of SAW delay line and explain how it is used in
Radar?

6.a) Explain how a Barker code is used for pulse compression of

Radar?

7.a) Compare the linear and non linear FM pulse compression.

b) Explain how the side lobe level is reduced for phase coded pulse
compression signals?
