RAMIREZ ZALDIVAR, Alexander R. et al. FPGA implementation of the monopulse antenna processor system. EAC [online]. 2023, vol.44, n.1, pp. 17-30.  Epub 06-Dic-2023. ISSN 1815-5928.

The tracking of radiofrequency signals emission source that use directive antennas constitutes a trend in the modern telecommunication systems. The present investigation is based in the application of digital signal processing techniques in FPGA to estimate the angular position of the signal emission source using monopulse. The paper shows design and implementation of processing blocks to determinate source direction from sum and difference resulting channels of the antenna. The system is done by multidomain simulation platform Simulink and exported to hardware description language for implementation in FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array). In the obtaining of error curve are used polynomial approximation models. The developed system is verified through eight elements antennas array with digital beamforming.
