    Rotating radar time domain data

    I want to simulate the time domain data for a rotating radar. I assume that the space around the radar is filled up with a very big extended object and it moves with a constant speed in one direction. Picture attached.I don't take range information here. I am only concerned about the velocity as...

    MATLAB Creating and recovering a frequency shift in time domain in MATLAB

    I am trying to simulate and process the Doppler signals. My main problem is a little more complex so I am only posting a simple version of it. Task1: I have a time-domain signal with the velocity of the target as mu. I need to change the velocity to mu cos(theta) where theta is a vector from 0...

    MATLAB How to change the frequency values inside a time domain signal phase

    The problem I am having is simple. I have a Gaussian spectrum initially. Like this, Process 1: S = m0/sqrt(2*pi*sigma^2) * exp(-(vel_axis - mu).^2/(2*sigma^2)); Here, mu is the mean velocity (frequency) and sigma is the standard deviation. vel_axis is the axis on which I am calculating this...

    Trouble Understanding Phasor to Time Domain Conversion Math

    This is a problem about converting from the phasor to time domain. I am having trouble following the math that the textbook is doing. I was thinking the final answer should be: i(d, t) = 0.20 cos(ωt + βd + 159◦) - 0.091 cos(ωt − βd + 185.6◦) emphasize the minus 0.091 instead of plus 0.091 as...

    Python Phase shifting a measured signal directly in time domain

    I need to perform a phase shift for a measured time domain signal. The signal consists of around 1000 points. I wrote an algorithm for this in Python a while ago and it seems to work as intended, but now I noticed that the algorithm is actually unexpectedly slow. Is it so that phase shifting is...
