The response to arbitrarily bandlimited Gaussian noise of the complex stretch processor using certain range-sidelobe-reduction windows

Abstract

This paper derives the response of the complex stretch processor to bandlimited Gaussian noise having arbitrary center frequency and bandwidth. The complex stretch processor uses a range-sidelobe-reduction window with a specific but common mathematical form. The paper then identifies three jamming-related applications of the derived characterization. Digital simulation results for the three identified jamming applications, assuming the complex stretch processor uses a Hamming or Hann window, verify the derivation's correctness.
