Abstract

The application of a pulse radar in anechoic chamber imaging is a new way to obtain the electromagnetic characteristics of targets. However, the limited size of an anechoic chamber causes the coupling between the transmitted signal and echo so the target image cannot be accurately achieved. To solve this problem, an imaging method using a pulse radar in an anechoic chamber based on an amplitude modulation design is proposed in this paper. Firstly, amplitude modulation is performed to solve the coupling of the transmitted signal and echo. In order to cancel the false targets in the target image after the amplitude modulation, different amplitude modulation sequences are designed. Secondly, echo processing based on the designed amplitude modulation is discussed to obtain the target image. Simulations and experiments are conducted and the results show that the proposed amplitude design and echo processing method can accurately obtain the target image in an anechoic chamber.
