Abstract
An electromagnetic transmission system is provided, comprising: M chirp generators, each operating at a first frequency, each of the M chirp generators being configured to generate an idigital chirp portion comprising (1/M)of a digital chirp signal having a set ramp rate; a parallel-in serial-out register configured to receive the M digital chip portions in parallel at the first frequency, and configured to output the M digital chip portions in series as the digital chirp signal at a second frequency; and a digital-to-analog converter operating at the second frequency and configured to convert the digital chirp signal into an analog chirp signal, wherein i is an index that goes from 1 to M, and wherein the second frequency is M times the first frequency.
