Abstract
In previous work, it was shown that a noise radars have two signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) associated with them: one for the receive signal and another for the signal retained within for matched filtering. However, these two SNRs can be combined into a single correlation coefficient which can be easily be used for performance prediction. Unlike SNR, this correlation coefficient can be estimated directly from radar detection data. This work presents experimental verification of the theoretical relationship between the SNRs of a noise radar and the correlation coefficient, showing that it holds for a wide range of transmit powers.
