Generating Radar Echo Signals with MATLAB

This document presents a MATLAB implementation for generating radar echo signals that simulate variations in signal strength and echo time. Through this simulation experiment, we investigate the properties and characteristics of radar signals. MATLAB serves as a powerful tool for signal processing and simulation experiments, enabling us to implement key algorithms such as pulse generation, time-delay calculations, and amplitude modulation. The simulation incorporates several technical components: a pulse generator using MATLAB's waveform functions, time-delay modeling to represent target distance variations, and amplitude fluctuations to simulate signal attenuation. Key functions like pulse waveform generation, time-domain analysis, and signal modulation techniques are implemented to create realistic echo patterns. This experiment provides deeper understanding of radar signal principles and characteristics, which holds significant importance for radar technology research and applications. The code implementation demonstrates practical approaches to signal modeling, including parameter configuration for pulse repetition intervals, target range simulation, and signal-to-noise ratio considerations for realistic echo generation.
