Look-Up Perimeter Intrusion Sensor: Evaluation of a Continuous Array.

摘要

A look-up sensor to detect low altitude airborne intruders is proposed and analyzed. The sensor, which consists of a continuous array of radiators, produces a vertical detection zone around the perimeter of the protected installation. Expressions for its design and detection performance are developed and used to generate a set of parametric coverage diagrams for the sensor. A multistatic implementation of the system is examined that gives the unambiguous measurement of intruder range and altitude. Finally, control of the transmitter pulse shape to reduce the radiation pattern sidelobes is discussed. (Author)
