radarEmission
Description
The radarEmission
class creates a radar emission object. This object
contains all the properties that describe a signal radiated by a radar source.
Creation
Description
creates a
signal
= radarEmissionradarEmission
object with default properties. The object represents
radar signals from emitters, channels, and sensors.
sets object properties specified by one or more signal
= radarEmission(Name,Value
)Name,Value
pair
arguments. Name
can also be a property name and
Value
is the corresponding value. Name
must appear
inside single quotes (''
). You can specify several name-value pair
arguments in any order as Name1,Value1,...,NameN,ValueN
.
Properties
PlatformID

EmitterIndex
— Emitter identifier
positive integer
Emitter identifier, specified as a positive integer. Each emitter index is unique.
Example: 2

ProcessingGain
— Processing gain
0
(default) | scalar
Processing gain associated with the signal waveform, specified as a scalar. Units are in dB.
Example: 10
Data Types: double
PropagationRange
— Distance signal propagates
0
(default) | nonnegative scalar
Total distance over which the signal has propagated, specified as a nonnegative scalar. For direct-path signals, the range is zero. Units are in meters.
Example: 1000
Data Types: double
PropagationRangeRate
— Range rate of signal propagation path
0
(default) | scalar
Total range rate for the path over which the signal has propagated, specified as a scalar. For direct-path signals, the range rate is zero. Units are in meters per second.

Create Radar Emission Object
Create a radarEmission
object with specified properties.
signal = radarEmission('PlatformID',10,'EmitterIndex',25, ... 'OriginPosition',[100,3000,50],'EIRP',10,'CenterFrequency',200e6, ... 'Bandwidth',10e3)
signal = radarEmission with properties: PlatformID: 10 EmitterIndex: 25 OriginPosition: [100 3000 50] OriginVelocity: [0 0 0] Orientation: [1x1 quaternion] FieldOfView: [180 180] CenterFrequency: 200000000 Bandwidth: 10000 WaveformType: 0 ProcessingGain: 0 PropagationRange: 0 PropagationRangeRate: 0 EIRP: 10 RCS: 0
Detect Radar Emission with radarDataGenerator
Create a radar emission and then detect the emission using a radarDataGenerator
object.
First, create a radar emission.
orient = quaternion([180 0 0],'eulerd','zyx','frame'); rfSig = radarEmission('PlatformID',1,'EmitterIndex',1,'EIRP',100, ... 'OriginPosition',[30 0 0],'Orientation',orient);
Then, create an ESM sensor using radarDataGenerator
.
sensor = radarDataGenerator(1,'DetectionMode','ESM');
Detect the RF emission.
time = 0; [dets,numDets,config] = sensor(rfSig,time)
dets = 1x1 cell array
{1x1 objectDetection}
numDets = 1
config = struct with fields:
SensorIndex: 1
IsValidTime: 1
IsScanDone: 0
FieldOfView: [1 5]
RangeLimits: [0 Inf]
RangeRateLimits: [0 Inf]
MeasurementParameters: [1x1 struct]
