Abstract

The invention concerns a method of synthesizing a replica used in the compression filter of pulse compression radar. The replica is calculated from the spectrum of a required impulse response. The required impulse response is preferably obtained from an analytical function, such as a sinc function or a weighted sinc function, and a template. It is preferable to use calibration signals of the instrument to calculate the replica. The invention also applies to synthetic aperture radar.
