Bistatic Radar as a Concept for an Weapon Locating Radar (Bistatische radar alsconcept voor een Wapen Locatie Radar)

摘要

One of the candidate suscessors of the Artillery Locating Radar AN/TPQ-37 isbased on the bistatic radar concept. One of the apparent advantages is the invulnerability for ARM's and ECM. Probably, state of the art components and processors are needed to realize this complex concept. This report looks into the principles of bistatic radar and the allied properties. In a system evaluation, attention has to be paid to the applied solutions for some basic technical problems.
