Multiple ranges for pulse compression radar

A pulse compression radar system comprising:

• a user interface configured to receive a selection of at least a first range and a second range from a plurality of ranges;
• a digital signal processor;
• and
• an antenna configured to:
• transmit a first burst for the first range using a pulse compression radar system, wherein the first burst comprises one or more transmission frames, wherein each of the one or more transmission frames comprises a first pulse signal and a time delay for reception of the first pulse signal;
• transmit a second burst for the second range using the pulse compression radar system after transmitting the first burst, wherein the second burst comprises one or more transmission frames, wherein each of the one or more transmission frames comprises a second pulse signal and a time delay for reception of the second pulse signal;
• and
• repeat transmissions of the first burst and the second burst in an alternating format.

A method comprising:

• selecting a first range, a second range, and a third range from a plurality of ranges;
• transmitting a first burst for the first range using a pulse compression radar system, wherein the first burst comprises one or more transmission frames, wherein each of the one or more transmission frames comprises a first pulse signal and a time delay for reception of the first pulse signal;
• transmitting a second burst for the second range using the pulse compression radar system after transmitting the first burst, wherein the second burst comprises one or more transmission frames, wherein each of the one or more transmission frames comprises a second pulse signal and a time delay for reception of the second pulse signal;
• transmitting a third burst for the third range using the pulse compression radar system after transmitting the second burst, wherein the third burst comprises one or more transmission frames, wherein each of the one or more transmission frames comprises a third pulse signal and a time delay for reception of the third pulse signal;
• and
• repeating transmissions of the first burst, the second burst, and the third burst using the pulse compression radar system after transmitting the third burst.
