ABSTRACT: A system for achieving improved angular resolution with baseband radar systems which includes dual baseband receivers and a correlator or tapped transmission line therebetween. The tap on the transmission line at which pulses received by each receiver coalesce determines the angular location of a target with an angular resolution that is proportional to the ratio of the pulse width to the receiver separation.
