Radar System Simulation MATLAB Toolbox

Resource Overview

A MATLAB toolbox developed by Japanese researchers for radar system simulation, featuring comprehensive radar signal modeling capabilities suitable for software-based simulation studies. While excellent for algorithmic development and performance analysis, it may have limitations for direct hardware implementation design.

Detailed Documentation

This MATLAB toolbox, developed by Japanese researchers, provides extensive radar system simulation capabilities. The toolbox implements various radar signal models including pulse compression waveforms, FMCW signals, and phased array beamforming simulations through MATLAB functions and Simulink blocks. Key features include signal processing chain simulation (matched filtering, Doppler processing, CFAR detection) and environment modeling (clutter, noise, target RCS). While highly effective for algorithm validation and performance evaluation in software simulation, the toolbox lacks hardware-in-the-loop interfaces and real-time processing capabilities, making it less suitable for direct hardware design applications requiring FPGA/ASIC implementation.
