Abstract
The range resolution of a radar system depends on a number of factors,
such as the duration and shape of the transmitted radar pulse, the
impulse response of the receiver matched filter, the antenna system,
characteristics of some transmitting and receiving equipment, etc.
In this study, the theoretical range resolution of the stratospheretroposphere
CST) radar system having instrumental imperfections is
considered. The imperfections considered are the width and shape
of the transmitted pulse and the associated impulse response of the
receiver matched filter which is assumed to be always matched to the
transmitted pulse. All other parameters that influence range resolution
are assumed to be ideal. A simplified model of an ST radar system
suitable for resolution studies is presented and this is used to simulate
atmospheric profiles
