Polyphase radar codes promise enhanced performance and flexibility due to greater design freedom. While the search for better codes continues, the implementation issues of transmitter bandlimiting and nonlinear distortion have precluded their widespread use in high-power systems. This paper introduces a modified continuous phase modulation implementation that converts an arbitrary polyphase code into a nonlinear frequency-modulated waveform that is constant envelope and spectrally well contained. Experimental results assess the receive sampling and pulse compression effects.
