Space-Time Signal Processing in a Bistatic Forward-Scattering Radar System with an Array Antenna

摘要

A method for space-time signal processing in a bistatic radar system with forward-scattering detection is considered. The method uses array antennas with patterns that are formed after amplitude detection of signals in omnidirectional (or near-omnidirectional) spatial channels. It is shown that the nonuniqueness of the measured angle of arrival arising in the course of such processing can readily be removed. Measurement characteristics were estimated using a mathematical simulation.
