Low frequency signals analysis for range and Doppler high resolution SODAR applications

High range and Doppler resolution is a significant issue in both RADAR (Radio Detection and Ranging) and SODAR (Sound Detection and Ranging) applications. Despite the many common features of the RADAR and SODAR systems, a very large difference in the frequency of the signal forces a thorough analysis of the emitted probing signals. This article presents the results of research aimed at determining parameters of complex waveforms responsible for obtaining suitable range/Doppler resolution using low frequency signals for SODAR applications.
