Abstract

This radar system can be used as an independent entity or as an addition ton operating radar system for acquiring additional data from a radar target's returned signal that is not currently being utilized. The system is to separate the amplitude modulation and frequency modulation sidebands created by the target's surface motion or vibration into independently useable entities. The system measures near carrier AM and FM noises, together with techniques for integrating these elements into a working radar system.
