Title: Efficient Wideband Spreading Function Estimation Using Arbitrary Shaped LFM Signals via Hermite Decompositions

Abstract: In active imaging, information such as range and velocity of a target can be obtained by transmitting a signal and processing the received signals. Signal processing of acoustic signals scattered from distributed targets has become an increasing attention to the researchers. The delay-scale wideband spreading function (WSF) is often used to characterize the distributed targets environment. This paper presents an efficient technique for estimating WSF using Hermite decomposition. In realistic sonar and radar, it may be necessary to detect more than one target simultaneously. Under this scenario, resolution is a major concern to be considered to separate multiple targets. This paper focuses on the applications of Hermite decomposition to efficiently compute WSF and the use of multiple transmissions to improve resolution.
