5121122, 12:08.AM Radar Systems -Matched Fier Receiver Radar Systems - Matched Filter Receiver Ifa filter produces an output in such a way that it maximizes the ratio of output peak power to mean noise power in its frequency response, then that filter is called Matched filter. This is an important criterion, which is considered while designing any Radar receiver. In this chapter, let us discuss the frequency response function of Matched filter and impulse response of Matched filter. Frequency Response Function of Matched Filter The frequency response of the Matched filter will be proportional to the complex conjugate of the input signal's spectrum. Mathematically, we can write the expression for frequency response function, H(f) of the Matched filter as - H(f)=G.S* (fle? Equation 1 Where, G,_is the maximum gain of the Matched filter ‘S\(f) is the Fourier transform of the input signal, s () S*(f) is the complex conjugate of $(f) 4, is the time instant at which the signal observed to be maximum In general, the value of G, is considered as one.

Impulse Response of Matched Filter In time domain, we will get the output, h(t) of Matched filter receiver by applying the inverse Fourier transform of the frequency response function, H(f) . h(t) = f H(fye?" df Equation 3 Substitute, Equation 1 in Equation 3. ne) = [G8 (fe mI pemas saa f GaS* (fle PN4—Yaf Equation 4 We know the following relation.
