Using the 'Radar Waveform Analyzer' in phased array toolbox how do I specify my own phased-coded pulse?

Using the 'Radar Waveform Analyzer' in phased array toolbox how do I specify my own phased-coded pulse? A Barker coded pulse is provided as an example, but I have another phase code of my own I would like to use with the GUI provided by the MatLab toolbox.

The Radar Waveform Analyzer does not take custom waveform at this point. However, all the analysis can be done using tools in Phased Array System Toolbox. One thing you can do is to analyze a supported phase coded waveform in the analyzer and then generate MATLAB code from it. Once you have MATLAB code, you can replace the signal in the script with your own custom waveform. Then you get the result for your waveform.

Thanks.... will try your suggestion.

I have been unable to implement this suggestion by Mr Chen using the phased-array toolbox. At this time have abandoned using the phased-array toolbox and found it easier to just write my own MatLab code or take code from someplace else and modify for my purposes.

Hi Brenton, would you mind sharing with me what difficulty did you encounter when you try to use my approach? I'm very interested. Thanks.
