radars

Illustration of some radar concepts with octave/matlab:

1. radar_1_pulse_radar.m simulate pulse radar with matched filter processing and CFAR detection to retrieve target position.
2. radar_2_pulse_integration.m similar to 1. with additional non coherent pulse integration.
3. radar_3_pulse_compression.m illustrates pulse compression with linear frequency modulation (LFM).
4. radar_3b_pulse_compression.m illustrates range resolution gain of rectangular pulse versus LFM pulse compression - two close targets are detected with LFM while not with rectangular pulse for the same pulse duration.
5. radar_4_continous_wave_LFM illustrates a range doppler map of a moving target with 2D FFT.

requirements

If run from matlab, make sure you have the signal processing toolbox.
If run from octave, make sure signal package is installer.
If using the joined Dockerfile, it will work out of the box.

how to use

From an matlab/octave command prompt just run the desired script, for example:

>> radar_1_pulse_radar

If using docker, making X11 apps work inside docker by running this command in host

xhost +local:docker

Then inside the docker container running the following command allow to open the octave gui from which you can run any script:

octave --gui

Inside the matlab/octave gui command prompt, you can run:

>> radar_1_pulse_radar
