Spectrum Analysis of Parabolic Range Gate Pull-Off (rgpo) Signals;

Abstract

Digital Radio Frequency Memory (DRFM) is a method that is used to capture radar threat signals, and retransmit them by changing their parameters in order to deceive or manipulate radar threats. Range gate pull-off (RGPO) technique is widely used in DRFM methods. RGPO can be either linear or parabolic RGPO according to the applied pull-off function. In this study, firstly, analytical derivations for temporal and spectral analysis of discrete form of linear and parabolic RGPO signals are presented. Then, various scenarios dependent on the parameters of pull-off function are created. Finally, simulation results regarding the scenarios are presented. © 2015 IEEE.
