Inhaltsangabe

This second edition includes new material on compressed sensing and its possible application to beam forming, results for phase-only-nulling against jammers, descriptions of further algorithms for superresolution and the reconnaissance of other radiating sources. This book also features a new chapter on radar operation by passive coherent location and the extension and explanation of the basic ideas for MIMOradar.

In addition to the coverage of antennas, array signal processing, adaptive digital beamforming and adaptive monopulse, several modern systems are described including spacetime adaptive processing (STAP), moving target detection using synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and several other experimental phased array radar systems. Topics include: array signal processing, array calibration, adaptive digital beamforming, adaptive monopulse, superresolution, pulse compression, sequential detection, target detection with long pulse series, spacetime adaptive processing (STAP), synthetic aperture radar (SAR), target imaging, energy management and system parameter relations. The discussed methods are confirmed by simulation studies and experimental array systems developed by the authors team at FGAN, now Fraunhofer.

This book will appeal to graduate level engineers, researchers and managers in the field of radar, aviation and space technology.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Wulf-Dieter Wirth was founder and head of the Electronics Department of FGAN, the German defence research establishment, for about 40 years. He received his Dr.-Ing degree in electrical engineering from the Technical University ofg Berlin, Germany in 1962. He has published more than 50 papers with emphasis on phased array radar and signal procesing and presented reguarly at radar conferances. He was a member of several NATO research studies and other international working groups and the radar-committee of DGON. Since his retirement he has been a senior scientist at Fraunhofer FKIE, working on array signal processing for reconnaissance and passive coherent location radar.
