The transmission unit generates a transmission signal obtained by multiplying a linearly FM-modulated pulse signal by a first window function. The pulse compression unit divides a signal, which is obtained by multiplying a first reference signal obtained by multiplying the pulse signal by a second window function different from the first window function, by a complex conjugate part of a second reference signal obtained by multiplying the pulse signal by a third window function, which is a function independent of the second window function, by a complex conjugate part of the transmission signal, and uses this as a reference signal. Then, the pulse compression unit performs pulse compression on the received signal using the reference signal.

There is provided an apparatus for generating a jamming signal for deceiving a transmission/reception device. The apparatus includes a reception unit configured to receive a signal transmitted from the transmission/reception device and a determination unit configured to determine whether or not the received signal is a pulse compression signal. The apparatus further includes a generation unit configured to determine, when the received signal is a pulse compression signal, a deception frequency based on a frequency bandwidth and a pulse width of the received pulse compression signal and generate the jamming signal based on the determined deception frequency.

A disclosed method includes: dividing an signal into a first signal and a second signal; performing frequency multiplication and amplification on the first signal to obtain an intermediate signal of corresponding power and frequency, and using the second signal as a local oscillation signal. The method further includes dividing the intermediate signal into a first intermediate signal and a second intermediate signal, and using the first intermediate signal as a reference signal; performing frequency mixing on the second intermediate signal and the local oscillation signal to obtain a mixed signal, which is a high-frequency millimeter wave signal; transmitting the mixed signal by a transmitting antenna; and performing frequency mixing on the signal received by a receiving antenna and the reference signal to obtain an intermediate-frequency controllable signal having a frequency consistent with that of the output signal of the signal source.

A need exists for a method to do monopulse tracking with a single beam phased array antenna. With a monopulse tracker antenna, the satellite, or moving target, will have a beacon signal that the tracker can acquire. The beacon signal may be a preamble in the transmitted signal from the satellite. The monopulse tracker antennas are scanned over the volume, minimizing the error signal. When the error signal is minimal, the antenna is pointed in the direction of the satellite or moving target. Because the tracker needs to know direction offsets in both azimuth and elevation planes, error signals from both planes are needed. The monopulse tracker antenna maintains a radio frequency link to the beacon signal, causing the antenna to lock in the direction of the satellite when the error signal is minimized to zero.
