THE AMBIGUITY DIAGRAM  

 

WAVEFORMS

THE WAVEFORMS:

We decided to apply the Ambiguity diagram to three different waveforms in order to better understand each waveform’s range and Doppler properties.

The first waveform is called the chirp waveform. Basically it is just a linear frequency modulation where we apply a certain slope to the frequency of the sinusoid.

Chirp Waveform:

The second waveform is called the PCM waveform, which stands for Psuedo-Random Phase-Coded Modulation. It is a randomly generated sequence of ones and zeros.

PCM Waveform:

The third waveform we tested is called the CW waveform. It is simply a constant pulse.
