Linear FM/chirped radar receiver matched filter implementation

Abstract

The matched filter has been implemented on TI TMS320C6201 Evaluation Module (EVM) digital signal processing board as a part of a linear FM radar receiver. Both time and frequency domain techniques were applied for implementation. The optimal processing speed has been achieved by fully exploiting the capacities of the EVM's 8 independent functional units. Simulations have been carried out using Signal Processing Workbench (SPW) prior to implementation to verify the algorithms.
