Transform receivers for ECM applications
Abstract
This paper gives an overview of the theory of operation and performance characteristics for compressive and acousto-optical receivers. Included are simplified block diagrams, input/output relationships, processing element technology, data interface, and typical ranges of bandwidth and data rates. Key performance requirements for Radar Warning and ECM are compared showing the features which make these receiver types powerful tools for future systems.
