Abstract
A fiber optic pulse compression concept for processing wide bandwidth (>_1 GHz ) radar signals is discussed. This concept is based on the correlation process. It has the potential of achieving a range resolution greater than 15 cm (0.5 feet), a correlation rate greater than 1 GHZ, and a compression ratio greater than 100.
