ParametersTable

Table of optimum parameters for various frequencies

A few assumptions: velocity resolution is imposed to be 2 cm/s; modulation bandwidth is 1% of frequency; Doppler spectral width = 6x Bragg velocity to ensure look-alike spectra; phased array is 12 antennas; VOP is 0.66. Broadening by windowing (i.e. Blackman against rectangular) not taken into account for the computation of the range and velocity resolutions.

Computation sequence: given F, compute L, l and cb. Given B linked to F, compute d. Given F, compute D and m. Given v and L, compute T. Given cb, compute V. Given V and L, compute t. Given t and T, compute n. Given t and m, compute b.
