In an attempt to find an optimal processing architecture for radar signal processing applications, the different algorithms that are typically used in a pulse-Doppler radar signal processor are investigated. Radar algorithms are broken down into mathematical operations and the relative processing requirements of each operation is determined. Implementation alternatives for the operations with the highest relative processing requirements are briefly discussed for an FPGA based soft-core architecture.
