VII Read the following text and write an abstract (Ukrainian& English)
Radar
Radar is an acronym for RAdio Detection And Ranging. In the simplest
radar system, a radio transmitter produces a pulse of radio frequency energy a few
microseconds long. This pulse is fed into a highly directional antenna, where the
resulting radio wave propagates away at the speed of light. Aircraft in the path of
this wave will reflect a small portion of the energy back toward a receiving
antenna, situated near the transmission site. The distance to the object is calculated
from the elapsed time between the transmitted pulse and the received echo. The
direction to the object is found more simply; you know where you pointed the
directional antenna when the echo was received.
The operating range of a radar system is determined by two parameters: how
much energy is in the initial pulse, and the noise level of the radio receiver.
Unfortunately, increasing the energy in the pulse usually requires making the pulse
longer. In turn, the longer pulse reduces the accuracy and precision of the elapsed
time measurement. This results in a conflict between two important parameters: the
ability to detect objects at long range, and the ability to accurately determine an
object's distance.
DSP has revolutionized radar in three areas, all of which relate to this basic
problem. First, DSP can compress the pulse after it is received, providing better
distance determination without reducing the operating range. Second, DSP can
filter the received signal to decrease the noise. This increases the range, without
degrading the distance determination. Third, DSP enables the rapid selection and
generation of different pulse shapes and lengths. Among other things, this allows
the pulse to be optimized for a particular detection problem. Now the impressive
part: much of this is done at a sampling rate comparable to the radio frequency
used, at high as several hundred megahertz!
When it comes to radar, DSP is as much about high-speed hardware design
as it is about algorithms.
