Abstract
A radar system including a transmit antenna for transmitting a radio frequency (RF) signal or a radar signal and a receive antenna for receiving a plurality of reflected signals created by a plurality of targets reflecting the RF signal or radar signal. The reflected signals include noise. The radar system also includes an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) that digitizes or samples the reflected signals to provide a digitized or sampled noisy input signal. The radar system further includes a reservoir computer that receives the noisy input signal. The reservoir computer includes a time-varying reservoir and is configured to de-noise the noisy input signal and provide a range measurement for each of the plurality of targets.
