| Summary: | An ultra-wideband chaotic radar with wireless synchronization command is proposed and experimentally demonstrated for target localization and tracking. This radar uses the wideband chaotic pulse position modulation (CPPM) signal as the probe signal and the radar structure of single-transmitting-dual-receiving. The echo signal scattered from a target is collected by two receivers. The target is located and tracked accurately in two-dimensional space using the signal processing scheme. In particular, the radar receivers can directly generate the CPPM reference signals through a wireless synchronization command, so that the transceivers can be physically separated without cable or optical fiber connection. Experimental results demonstrate the proposed chaotic radar can locate and track the target accurately. A localization error of 11 cm and a detection resolution of 17 cm can be both achieved. Moreover, this radar possesses the excellent immune performance to the external electromagnetic interferences, which makes it suitable in the complex electromagnetic environment caused by the cooperative work of multiple radars.
