Combined analysis of probability of missed detection and positioning accuracy for receiver selection in SFN based passive radar systems

摘要

Multistatic passive radar systems provide higher positioning accuracy comparing with the bistatic ones. However, the positioning performance of the multistatic passive radar systems is largely dependent on the geometry. Especially, it is difficult to designate transmitters from the given ones in a single frequency network (SFN) based passive radar system. Therefore the receiver location is of crucial importance. In this paper, the influence of different receiver positions for the probability of missed detection and the target positioning accuracy are analyzed. Then a performance function for selecting the optimal receiver is proposed. Finally, a simulation with three transmitters and one receiver is presented.
