Through courses taught internally at the Institute for Defense Analysis, Dr. Roger Sullivan has devised a book that brings readers fully up to speed on the most essential quantitative aspects of general
radar in order to introduce study of the most exciting and relevant applications to
radar imaging and advanced concepts:
Synthetic Aperture
Radar (4
chapters), Space-time Adaptive Processing, moving target indication (MTI), bistatic
radar, low probability of intercept (LPI)
radar, weather
radar, and ground-penetrating
radar. Whether you are a
radar novice or experienced professional, this is an essential reference that features the theory and practical application of formulas you use in
radar design every day. With this book, you are taken step-by-step through the development of modern airborne microwave
radar, up to
the cutting edge of emergent technologies including new results on theoretical 2D and 3D ISAR point-spread functions (PSF) and current discussions concerning dechirp/deskew processing, layover in SAR images, vibrating targets, foliage penetration, image quality parameters, and more. Plus, for students of electrical engineering, physics, and
radar, this book provides the best source of basic airborne
radar understanding, as well as a broad introduction to the field of
radar imaging. Key Features Only book designed to lead the reader from basic concepts to a survey of imaging and advanced concepts. Devotes four full chapters to SAR/ISAR to fully prepare readers for advanced books.
Exercises included at the end of each
chapter for s of understanding and reinforcement. Comprehensive 50-page glossary considerably more extensive than any general
radar book. Considerable number of new results and methods are included.
