Abstract
Laser chaos is promising for constructing high range-resolution and anti-jamming radars, whereas the range resolution and anti-jamming capability are unfortunately limited by laser relaxation oscillation and external-cavity resonance, respectively. Here, we theoretically propose using a broadband white chaos generated by optical heterodyne of two chaotic external-cavity semiconductor lasers as source signal to construct a radar system with enhanced range resolution and anti-jamming capability. The white chaos not only has a white-noise-like wide spectrum without relaxation oscillation, but also has no signature of external-cavity resonance. Benefitting from these merits, the proposed white-chaos radar shows a marvelous unambiguous detection performance with subcentimeter range resolution. Moreover, the elimination of external-cavity resonance enables the randomness improvement of source signal, and resultantly, the anti-jamming capability is enhanced as well.
