Multiantenna radiometric complex for high resolution imaging: Synthesis of algorithm for optimal UWB signal processing and development of functional flow block diagram

The problem of statictical synthesis of correlated spatio-temporal signal processing algorithm (at the output of M-element antenna array) in an analytical form is solved by the developed mathematical apparatus of integral V-transformation that allows to remove the limitation on the synthesis of UWB spatio-temporal signal. More specifically the algorithm of optimal signal processing at the output of M-element antenna array is derived in the analytical form. It allows to analyze the quality of estimations obtained according to this algorithm and to give physical interpretation of radiometric images formed at the output of UWB complexes. The structural scheme of UWB complex with variable antennas quantity is developed in the simulation environment. The ambiguity functions of such complexes calculated for certain fixed antenna array geometries are studied.
