Ah so.

Have you seen "Radar Principles" by Nadav Levanon (1988)? It's a gold
mine of information about designing sync sequences, since that's what
radar is all about.

Talks a lot about FM chirping which seems to be undergoing a
renaissance. I understand it to be used in LoRa. And I hear a lot of
chirped ocean state radars on HF these days. It would be interesting to
have a HF propagation sounder that can resolve ionospheric multipath
components. Might be difficult to do with a bandwidth tolerable in the
HF ham bands, though.
