Weather Radar Matlab Scripts

I may have an upcoming opportunity to perform signal processing on some satellite data for tracking storms and ocean wave heights…

Anyway, I am studying some radar books in preparation.

* * *

Here are some Matlab scripts for monostatic pulsed radar systems:

target_range.zip – calculates target range from delay time or vice versa

maximum_unambiguous_range.zip – calculations for maximum unambiguous range and pulse repetition time and frequency

PRF_PRI.zip – calculates the Pulse Repetition Interval (PRI) from the Pulse Repetition Frequency (PRF), or vice versa

ave_trans_power.zip – calculates average transmitted power from peak transmitted power and duty cycle

pulse_energy.zip – calculates the pulse energy from either the peak or average transmitted power

* * *

Here are some additional radar scripts:

wavelength.zip – performs frequency and wavelength conversions

beamwidth_parabolic_reflector.zip – calculates the beamwidth of a typical parabolic reflector

See also:  Doppler Shift

More later…
