Fully Analog, Multi-Lag, RF Correlators for Code-Domain Radars Using Margin Propagation 150 150

Abstract:

We present a fully analog, multiplier-free, sampled-domain RF correlator to achieve high energy efficiency for radar workloads. The RF correlator employs a split-source follower architecture that leverages the margin propagation (MP) computing paradigm in the sampled domain. As a proof of concept, we implement a $256 \times 256$ fully analog cross correlator …
