The synthetic wideband signal has the advantages of high range and velocity resolution. It has a wide range of applications in target detection and recognition. While in the processing of signal generation, due to the improper setting of hardware system parameters, the bandwidth of the transmitting signal may not be consistent with the nominal value, which will affect the result of signal processing. In this study, the influence of system bandwidth error on synthetic high-resolution range profile is theoretically analysed. On this basis, an error compensation method based on parameter traversal is proposed and verified with simulation and experimental data processing.
