Abstract:

A method and apparatus for transponding pulsed RF signals is provided. The method comprises receiving, with a receiver, pulsed RF signals having a plurality of PRIs. Further the method includes generating, with a PRI tracker, control signals from the received pulsed RF signals. The method then filters the received pulsed RF signals with the control signals to thereby obtain enable signals, which in turn control a transmitter permitting retransmission without clock jitter.
