Abstract

Due to the development of digital technologies for receiving and transmitting radio location signals, the development of modern radars with a synthesized aperture has made it possible to widely use an ensemble of probing signals with periodic sequences of identical pulses. The manipulation of probing pulses in transmission opens up opportunities to reduce the level of interference of ambiguity in range, expand the capture bands, improve azimuth resolution, and reduce interference from the background surrounding the target. However, the literature currently does not sufficiently address the issues of synthesis and analysis of ensembles of probing signals for a synthetic aperture radar (RSA) placed on board an unmanned aerial vehicle. Several variants of the implementation of ensembles of probing signals in the RSA are considered, mathematical modeling and experimental testing are carried out on the basis of the RSA operating in the VHF frequency range, placed on board an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The conducted modeling allows us to draw the following conclusions. The best characteristics are possessed by an ensemble of signals encoded by Huffman codes, where M-sequences were used to "scatter" the roots. In second place is an ensemble of signals encoded by composite M-sequences. However, with an increase in the base of probing signals (N>64), the best results are shown by an ensemble of signals based on composite M-sequences.
