Convert bandwidth to range resolution
Note
The use of bw2range
is
not recommended. Use bw2rangeres
instead.
returns the range resolution of a signal
corresponding to its bandwidth. Range resolution
gives you the minimum range difference needed to
distinguish two targets. The function applies to
two-way propagation, as in a monostatic radar
system.rngres
= bw2range(bw
)
This function assumes two-way propagation. For one-way propagation, you can find the required range resolution by multiplying the output of this function by 2.
The function computes range resolution from rngres
= c/(2*bw)
.
