System and Method of Radar Location
First Claim
1. A system for radar location comprising:
- radar signal emission means, said signal comprising at least one emitted pulse, an emitted pulse having a duration T1 and an associated index i and starting at an instant T2(i), moreover the said pulse being modulated by at least one code preserving good autocorrelation properties when a fraction of the said code is used;
means for receiving reflected radar signals;
means for determining a correlation between a reconstruction of an emitted pulse and the radar signal received during the time interval starting at T2(i)+2*T1 and finishing at T2(i+1);
said means for determining a correlation being further adapted for;
reconstructing a set, of at least one truncated pulse j, a truncated pulse j being of duration T3(j), smaller than the duration of the emitted pulse T1 and corresponding to the final part of the said emitted pulse, said truncated pulses being of increasing respective durations,determining at least one first correlated signal j by correlation of said truncated pulse j and of the signal received during the time interval starting at T2(i)+T1 and finishing at T2(i)+T1+T3(j),determining a second signal, on the basis of all or part of the first correlated signals j, by copying the time interval, of said correlated signal j, starting at T2(i)+T1+T3(j−
1) and finishing at T2(i)+T1+T3(j), onto the time interval, of said second signal, starting at T2(i)+T1+T3(j−
1) and finishing at T2(i)+T1+T3(j).

Abstract
A system and method of radar location comprises radar signal emission means, an emitted pulse of duration T1 and index i starting at instant T2(i); means receiving reflected radar signals; means determining correlation between reconstruction of an emitted pulse and signal received during the time interval between T2(i)+2*T1 and T2(i+1). The means determining a correlation can reconstruct a set, of at least one truncated pulse j of duration T3(j), less than T1, corresponding to the final part of said emitted pulse, said truncated pulses having increasing respective durations, determining at least one first correlated signal j by correlation of said truncated pulse j and signal received during time interval between T2(i)+T1 and T2(i)+T1+T3(j) and determining a second signal, based on first correlated signals j, by copying the time interval, of said correlated signal j, between T2(i)+T1+T3(j) and T2(i)+T1+T3(j+1), onto the time interval, of said second signal, between T2(i)+T1+T3(j) and T2(i)+T1+T3(j+1).
