Benghuzzi Follow this and additional works at the FSU Digital Library. Waveform Coding Discrete
waveform coding, or simply waveform coding, is a radar pulse compression technique. The resulting
random variable will have statistical properties, such as a mean value, moments, variance, that are
related to its probability density function. The length of the new pulse is five times the original pulse.
Social Posts Create on-brand social posts and Articles in minutes. An energy suppressed Welti coded
cw waveform is then generated by multiplying the filtered Welti code with the carrier frequency. The
length of the new pulse is five times the original pulse. This will result in energy concentration at the
chip rate fundamental frequency, in addition to energy concentration at twice the carrier frequency.
Nonetheless, severe degradation of the Welti code’s composite autocorrelation still did not result,
and the higher pulse compression ratio superiority of the code was still retained. Only the side-lobes
and not the peaks of one are the negative of the other, and therefore, the sum yields a larger peak and
no side-lobes. Also, code D22 is equal to code D1 2 written in reverse order. Now, however,
detection and target locating can be accomplished without power emanation by deploying passive
receiver systems. Passive detectors are devices designed to detect the presence of emitted radiation
without relying on target illumination first. It is expected that trade-off will occur between obtaining
higher degree of passive detection energy suppression and retaining higher pulse compression ratio
superiority. Next stage noise rejection filters, in this case, should be centered around the expected 47

Design pixel-perfect content like flyers, magazines and more with Adobe InDesign. A class of
detectors, called feature detectors, that is common in the communication world is capable of
detecting the higher order features present in a coded waveform. Filtering is performed on the Welti
code itself, and therefore, the desired Welti code filter characteristics are derived. Know that this is

the above link to access the UF thesis template on Overleaf. However, because of the associated
spectral lines, hidden periodicity can be detected and in some cases exploited. Trees derived from
anal Page 154 and 155: Figure 5-4. Issuu turns PDFs and other files into interactive flipbooks and
engaging content for every channel. Even though feature detectors are used to detect, locate and
identify a signal source, they cannot actually decode the content or information in the 44 Page 57.
For simplicity, this bandwidth will be referred to as the cw waveform reference bandwidth. Coded
waveforms achieve superior pulse compression but create new higher order features which an
interceptor can use to discriminate signals from noise. Quantities that are often encountered in
solving practical problems are the autocorrelation function and mean value of a stochastic process.
The notch filter bandwidth was varied from 0 up to 600 kHz in increments of ??2 100 1, or 60 kHz.
An opportunity for further study is to investigate second-order periodicity in cyclostationary signals.
For a reasonable range- resolution, a fairly high power would need to be transmitted in a very short
time. This frequency separation is identical to the chip rate frequency previously noted for the
delayed-and-multiplied code in the bottom plot of Figure 6.18, i.e., this frequency separation is
twice the chip rate for the original Welti code. The information contained in the spectral lines
generated in a delayed-and-multiplied phase coded signal is the code’s chip width, or equivalently,
the code’s chip rate. P(xi i) ?(x- xi) (2.8) where ?(.) is the impulse function. An opportunity for
further study that is of greater consequence is to investigate second-order periodicity 78 Page 91.
Bottom: Spectra of the Square of the Suppressed Coded cw Waveform. Finally, the composite
autocorrelations for the unfiltered and filtered Welti codes are also plotted and compared. 108 Page
121. Peak power normalization was then performed on the filtered Welti code in order to restore
peak power’s original value. As seen from the bottom plot, the shape of the central peak remains
virtually unchanged and the time side-lobes still nearly cancelled. Articles Get discovered by sharing
your best content as bite-sized articles. These cyclostationary properties can be easily detected with
the use of a nonlinear transformation device. In order to simplify the MATLAB plots generated, the
carrier frequency was chosen to be in the MHz range and not in the typical GHz range for radar RF
carrier frequencies. Finally, filtering of the Welti code was performed using the third energy
suppression notch filter bandwidth of 240 kHz. Trees derived from anal Page 160 and 161: Figure 5-

reverse order. Resources Dive into our extensive resources on the topic that interests you. Issuu turns

autocorrelation function side-lobe cancellation enhances reflected signal distinction from noise by the

XL(?) is the mirror image of XR(?), then for the purpose of problem simplification and without loss
of generality, frequency components of interest in only the right positive spectrum XR(?) are
considered, and therefore, the frequency components that will be examined are those in the
neighborhood of ? ? 2fc. This dissertation focuses on suppression of cyclostationary properties
present in pulse coded waveforms, more specifically, on suppression of cyclostationary properties
present in coded waveforms when the pulse code employed is of the Welti type. You’ll be able to
edit all of that with your info. Finally, filtering of the Welti code was performed using the third
energy suppression notch filter bandwidth of ??2 25 1, or 240 kHz. Figure 6.14 shows the unfiltered
Welti code in the top and the filtered code in the bottom. The signals of interest often consist of
combinations (additive, multiplicative, and other types) of stationary, periodic, and polyperiodic
signals. Detectability of features in coded waveforms is then discussed in the chapter. On the right,
you’ll see (huzzah!!) the final compiled PDF. Maidique Campus) or 305-919-5718 (Hubert Library,
Biscayne Bay Campus) for additional information. Each member time function is called a sample
function of the process. First, the average power within the cw waveform reference bandwidth was
determined when the Welti code was unfiltered. The average power within the cw waveform
reference bandwidth was measured to be 5.40 mW, or equivalently 7.32 dBm. This is a reduction of
approximately 56.5 % from the average power for the unsuppressed cw waveform.
Next, cyclostationary spectral lines suppression results are presented in the chapter. M(f - fc) M(fc -
f) df (6.16) and for any ? near 2fc, XR(2fc) becomes XR(?) ? 4 1. This is what I could not get to
work on my Mac; locally, I could see all of the files, but I could not figure out all of the errors that
were preventing my PDF from compiling. Trees derived from a Page 62 and 63: 62 Figure 2-8.
Barker code of length 13 is shown in Figure 4.6. The unique advantage of the Barker code is that the
time side-lobes of its autocorrelation function are all of equal height, a characteristic making
reflected waveforms easier to distinguish by receivers. The range to the target can be estimated by
utilizing the time difference between radar pulse transmission and reception. Also, nothing jumps out
to me as being incorrect based on the thesis guideline document (although I will continue checking
back with it as I move forward!). Golay defined his complementary pair as a pair of codes with one
code having the same number of like elements separated by a given spacing as the other code has
dislike elements separated by the same spacing. Next, a frequency converter comprised of a
multiplier (mixer) and a local oscillator translates the RF output down to an intermediate- frequency
(IF) band that is then filtered out by an IF filter. This is because I am confident that Overleaf has all
of the necessary infrastructure to write text and compile it (whereas with my Mac, I was more than a
bit lost on the numerous compiling errors I was producing). Passive detectors are also referred to as
feature detectors because in addition to their signal detection capability they are designed to detect
and exploit features in the radar signal. For simplicity, this bandwidth will be referred to as the cw
waveform reference bandwidth. Three various bandwidths of the energy suppression Welti code
notch filter are employed. Bottom: Spectra of the Square of the Suppressed Coded cw Waveform.
Additional complementary pairs can be produced by applying certain transformations. All other
products in the integral are nearly zero. The focus of the study of cyclostationarity has always been
on exploiting the redundancy and sine-wave generation properties of cyclostationary signals to
perform difficult signal processing tasks. Simulation of the Welti Coded Waveform Simulation of a
complementary pair of Welti coded cw waveforms is performed using MATLAB routines. This
clearly indicates that the complementary characteristics of the Welti code pair were retained. The
bandwidth, B, of this waveform of N sub-pulses is roughly the bandwidth of an individual sub-
pulse. The center frequency of the three notch filters is the dc frequency. Add Links Send readers
directly to specific items or pages with shopping and web links. The bandwidths are chosen in
relation to the first null of the Welti code sinc spectrum. You understand that these calls may be
generated using an automated technology. Trees derived from anal Page 158 and 159: Figure 5-6.
Finally, the composite autocorrelations for the unfiltered and filtered Welti codes are also plotted and
compared. 116 Page 129. Detectability of features in coded waveforms is then discussed in the
chapter. An example of phase coded waveforms is the Barker phase code. One of the antennas is for
transmission and one is for reception, however, the transmitter and receiver normally share a common
antenna (Figure 4.1). The process of detecting the presence of a target begins by the antenna
radiating the radio frequencies generated by the transmitter. The receiver would typically be a
correlation receiver, which compares the received signal to the transmitted signal.
In order to produce a fourth order transformation effect, in this case, the squaring operation is
performed twice. This is to allow for closer observation and comparison of the characteristics of the
spectra, in particular, the characteristics of the delay-and-multiply spectrum. Bottom: ? Chip
Delayed-and-Multiplied Welti Code. 79 Page 92. The Welti code is then filtered utilizing a notch
filter of bandwidth ??2 25 1, or 240 kHz, where. Check your local library to see what resources may
be available in your neighborhood. I will post here if I find a better alternative, however. Use of
binary phase coding also results in reflected signals that are easier distinguished from noise by the
radar receiver due to superior pulse compression ratio. The top plot in Figure 6.9 shows the
composite autocorrelation for the unfiltered Welti code and the bottom plot shows that for the
filtered code. The average power within the cw waveform reference bandwidth was measured to be
7.90 mW, or equivalently, 8.98 dBm. This is a reduction of approximately 36.6 % from the average
power for the unsuppressed cw waveform. 68 Page 81. If you are scrolling through the complied
PDF (the right panel), and you double click on any text, it’ll automatically open (in the left panel) the
source code for that spot in the PDF. Voucher, citation, and G Page 120 and 121: 120 Table 3-6.
Finally, the composite autocorrelations for the unfiltered and filtered Welti codes are also plotted and
compared. 124 Page 137. In the mean time, the reflected frequencies (target echoes) is picked up by
the antenna and passed to the receiver. You can write your entire paper as per the University of
Florida Thesis guidelines and auto format it. The focus of this study is on reducing the detectability
of the carrier frequency feature in phase coded waveforms, specifically, on reducing the detectability
of carrier frequency feature in a Welti coded cw waveform. A definition of cyclostationary signals
that is more useful in signal processing will be given in the next section. This lists links for places to
install old MacTex versions. The average power within the cw waveform reference bandwidth for
this notch filter bandwidth case was measured to be 2.80 mW, or equivalently, 4.47 dBm. The
average power reduction in this case is approximately 77.4% from the average power for the
unsuppressed cw waveform. To obtain a better understanding of the relationship between energy
suppression in the cw waveform reference bandwidth and the Welti code notch filter bandwidth, a
plot was generated depicting reference bandwidth percentage average power reduction versus notch
filter bandwidth. Figure 6.17 shows the plot. To obtain a generalized plot, 75 Page 88. As seen from
the bottom plot, the shape of the central peak remains virtually unchanged and the time side-lobes
still nearly cancelled. Object detection occurs when a significant portion of it is scattered back in the
direction from which it originally emanated, i.e., back in the direction of the radar receiver. Teams
Enable groups of users to work together to streamline your digital publishing. Thus, my next steps
are going to ditch the idea of running all of this locally; instead I will focus on using Overleaf for UF
dissertation writing. The average power within the cw waveform reference bandwidth was measured
to be 5.40 mW, or equivalently 7.32 dBm. This is a reduction of approximately 56.5 % from the
average power for the unsuppressed cw waveform. A receiver is used to detect this returned pulse
and an estimate of the range to the object can be made. Filter IF Filter RF Filter Figure 5.1 - Block
Diagram of the Square-Law Detector. 46 Page 59. Therefore, CEOExpress brings together the best
logistics resources on the Internet for busy Chief Logistics Officers and executives. The energy
suppressed cw waveform was then squared and average power was measured within the 6 MHz
reference bandwidth of the suppressed squared cw waveform. Complementary phase codes, which
are a subclass of binary phase codes, are then discussed. As mentioned earlier, the amount of
compression achieved is dependent upon the type of code used to modulate the cw.
Therefore, further research may be conducted to investigate how chip rate information may be
extracted from the repeated central spectral lines present in the spectrum of a delayed-and-multiplied
Welti code. 81 Page 94. Mr. Benghuzzi currently works in the telecommunications industry and is
certified by the State of Florida as a Professional Engineer. It is important to note that once the Welti
code is filtered, peak power in the code will be restored through appropriate normalization. The
receiver would typically be a correlation receiver, which compares the received signal to the
transmitted signal. Generally, a process is stationary to order N if its Nth-order density function does
not change with time. I will note in this post if I encounter any instances where I have needed to
alter anything in these files. An energy suppressed Welti coded cw waveform is then generated by
multiplying the filtered Welti code with the carrier frequency. All other products in the integral are
nearly zero. As the Welti code notch filter bandwidth was increased, the time- side lobes still nearly
cancelled, except as the filter bandwidth approached 25 1 of the bandwidth of the first null of the
Welti code sinc spectrum, or ??2 25 1, where highly noticeable side-lobe residue began resulting.

This is what I could not get to work on my Mac; locally, I could see all of the files, but I could not
figure out all of the errors that were preventing my PDF from compiling. You’ll be able to edit all of
that with your info. Since pulse compression ratio is inversely proportional to the number of elements
in a code, use of the Barker code is severely restrictive. In order to produce a fourth order
transformation effect, in this case, the squaring operation is performed twice. Each code in the set is
labeled according to the form Djk, where the length of the code is 2k, and j is an integer from 0 to
2k-1 that determines the specific code in the set. In Chapter 5, the three commonly used feature
detectors are presented. This study focuses on suppression of cyclostationary properties present in a
transformed Welti coded cw waveform with the nonlinear transformation being that of the quadratic
type. Video Say more by seamlessly including video within your publication. The IF output is then
fed to the main component of the detector that is comprised of a squaring device.
This study is concerned with signals that contain more subtle types of hidden periodicity than just
the first-order type. The average power within the cw waveform reference bandwidth was measured
to be 4.47 dBm, which is a reduction of approximately 77.4 % from the average power for the
unsuppressed cw waveform. The distance to the target is calculated as the speed of the pulse (speed
of light) multiplied by half the time difference between transmission and detection of the reflected
pulse. Filtering using the third energy suppression Welti code notch filter bandwidth of ??2 25 1, or
240 kHz resulted in highly noticeable code distortion. Since XL(?) is the mirror image of XR(?), then
for the purpose of problem simplification and without loss of generality, frequency components of
interest in only the right positive spectrum XR(?) are considered, and therefore, the frequency
components that will be examined are those in the neighborhood of ? ? 2fc. More precisely, a signal
is said to exhibit first-order periodicity if and only if the PSD of the signal contains spectral lines.
This technique reduces transmitted power, and therefore, reduces detectability by distributing power
over time. Finally, the composite autocorrelations for the unfiltered and filtered Welti codes are also
plotted and compared. 116 Page 129. Although much progress has been made in suppressing the
platform radar cross section to avoid detection by enemy active radar, little has been done to protect
the platform from being detected due to its own on board emissions. You will need the free Adobe
Acrobat Reader to view or print PDF files. It looks like I am set to run with this UF thesis template
on Overleaf. The energy suppressed cw waveform was then squared and average power was
measured within the 6 MHz reference bandwidth of the suppressed squared cw waveform. Finally,
the composite autocorrelations for the unfiltered and filtered Welti codes are also plotted and
compared. 108 Page 121. It's like a masterclass to be explored at your own pace. Suppression of
periodicity will be attempted by filtering out frequency components present in the actual Welti code
itself. Species of Caryophyllale Page 134 and 135: MIKC Genes and ABCDE Functions in F Page

detected with simple enemy passive receivers. Phylogram of single mos Page 58 and 59: Figure 2-4.
The carrier frequency, fc, used in this study to generate the coded cw signal was chosen to be
12MHz. This normalization is necessary in order to accurately compare energy suppression. This
clearly indicates that the complementary characteristics of the Welti code pair were retained. Can you
create it for me like University of Florida Thesis. Generally, a process is stationary to order N if its
Nth-order density function does not change with time. However, no complete side-lobe cancellation
is obtained in this case also. You’ll be able to edit all of that with your info. Embed Host your

investigate second-order periodicity in cyclostationary signals. Since pulse compression ratio is
inversely proportional to the number of elements in a code, use of the Barker code is severely
restrictive.
This is because I am confident that Overleaf has all of the necessary infrastructure to write text and
compile it (whereas with my Mac, I was more than a bit lost on the numerous compiling errors I was
producing). Average power is then measured within a reference bandwidth, ?2, in the suppressed
Welti coded cw waveform. The filter utilized is of the notch type that is centered around the dc
frequency. For accurate comparison of energy suppression, the peak energy value in the filtered Welti
code is restored, through normalization, to its original value in the unfiltered code. GIFs Highlight
your latest work via email or social media with custom GIFs. In Chapter 3, two forms of periodicity
in cyclostationary signals were discussed, first and second-order periodicity. Filtering using the
second energy suppression Welti code notch filter bandwidth of ??2 50 1, or 120 kHz results in slight
code distortion; nonetheless, the overall shape of the Welti code is maintained. However, why use a
template when you can write your entire manuscript on SciSpace, auto format it as per University of
Florida Thesis's guidelines and download the same in Word, PDF and LaTeX formats. This clearly
indicates that the complementary characteristics of the Welti code pair were retained. The average
power within the cw waveform reference bandwidth was measured to be 2.80 mW, or equivalently
4.47 dBm. This is a reduction of approximately 77.4 % from the average power for the unsuppressed
cw waveform. In the remaining detector stages, the signal is detected using envelope detector,

The codes are then sampled, with each chip having 64 samples. To obtain a better understanding of
the relationship between energy suppression in the cw waveform reference bandwidth and the Welti
code notch filter bandwidth, a plot was generated depicting reference bandwidth percentage average
power reduction versus notch filter bandwidth. Figure 6.17 shows the plot. To obtain a generalized
plot, 75 Page 88. A notch filter is easily constructed and its bandwidth can be easily varied as
needed, and when filtering a frequency spectrum of the Welti code’s type, a notch filter will produce
maximum energy suppression results. Figure 6.7 depicts the frequency spectrum of the Welti code in
the top plot and the same spectrum after filtering with a notch filter in the bottom plot. 64 Three
various bandwidths of the energy suppression notch filter will be employed. Trees derived from anal
Page 152 and 153: Figure 5-3. Average power is then measured within a reference bandwidth, ?2, in
the suppressed Welti coded cw waveform. Use of binary phase coding also results in reflected
signals that are easier distinguished from noise by the radar receiver due to superior pulse
compression ratio. Suppression of periodicity will be attempted by filtering out frequency
components present in the actual Welti code itself. Knowing the chip rate of a transmitted Welti code
may provide an enemy the opportunity for signal exploitation. Expression of PISTILLAT Page 196
