Résumé :
|
The handbook covers all the new developments in radar, as well as the fundamentals, making it the standard reference; each of the 25 chapters is written by an expert or experts in the field. A sampling of the many new radar advances includes : systems such as HF over-the-horizon radar for long-range detection, space-based radar for global coverage, doppler weather radar for improved weather forecasting, radar guidance of missiles, and 3D air surveillance radar ; technology such as solid-state transmitters, digital signal processing for implementing doppler filters for moving-target indication, CFAR, and automatic detection and tracking ; target and clutter cross-section characteristics, prediction, and measurement ; antenna technology ranging from modern reflector antennas to electronically steered phased arrays, low-sidelobe antennas, and adaptive antennas ; airborne pulse doppler, AMTI, and MTI radar methods for the detection of aircraft in the midst of much larger clutter echoes.
