<p>A radar apparatus using a pulse compression technique, in which any automatic response signals are prevented from creating false radar images on the indicator screen of the radar apparatus. An antenna repeats a transmit/receive cycle at a second time interval while rotating, in which i) a non-modulated pulse is transmitted, ii) a modulated pulse is transmitted a first time interval after the transmission of the non-modulated pulse, and iii) an echo and/or an automatic response signal occurring after the pulse transmission is received. For each transmit/receive cycle, a first separated receive signal having a frequency band corresponding to that of the modulated pulse and a second separated receive signal having a frequency band corresponding to that of the non-modulated pulse are separated. An elimination process is applied to the first separated receive signal, in which respective first separated receive signals for two consecutive transmit/receive cycles are compared and any signal component having discontinuity between two consecutive transmit/receive cycles is eliminated from the first separated receive signal. A pulse compression process is applied to the first separated receive signal having undergone the elimination process. The first separated receive signal having undergone the pulse compression process is combined with the second separated receive signal.</p> |
