A method and apparatus for reducing noise in a coded aperture radar system, the coded aperture radar system transmitting signals which occur in sweeps, with K sweeps utilized to cover field of view of the coded aperture radar system and Q frequency shifts or steps occurring each sweep thereof. An array of N antenna elements is provided, the array of antenna elements each having an associated two state modulator coupled therewith. Energy received at the array is modulated according to a sequence of multibit codes, the number of codes in the sequence of codes comprising at least K times Q times N, thereby reducing noise in the coded aperture radar system compared to a coded aperture radar system radar system having fewer than K times Q times N codes in its sequence of multibit codes. |
