Introduction to Radar Systems

Introduction to Radar Systems, 9780070579095 (0070579091), McGraw-Hill, 1980

Although tlie fundamentals of radar have changed little since the publication of the first edition, there has been continual development of new radar capabilities and continual improvements to the technology and practice of radar. This growth has necessitated extensive revisions arid tlie introduction of topics not found in the original.

One of the major changes is in the treatment of MTI (moving target indication) radar (Chap. 4). Most of the basic MTI concepts Gat have been added were known at the time of tlie first edition, but they had not appeared in the open literature nor were they widely used i11 practice. Inclusion in the first edition would have'been largely academic since the analog delay-line technology available at that time did not make it practical to build the sophisticated signal processors that were theoretically possible. However, subsequent advances in digital technology, originally developed for applications other than radar, have allowed the practical implementation of the multiple delay-line cancelers and multiple pulse-repetition-frequency MTI radars indicated by the basic MTI theory.
