Description

This module is aimed at graduate-level engineers with a background in electronic engineering or physics. The emphasis is on physical principles, and on modern radar systems and signal processing techniques, for both civilian and defence applications.

It considers a wide range of techniques used in radar systems including, the radar equation, noise, clutter and detection, displays, pulse doppler processing and STAP, pulse compression and waveform design. The module also looks in detail at many real radar systems including synthetic aperture radar, tracking radar, avionics and radionavigation, phased array radar, electronic warfare, stealth and counter-stealth, bistatic radar and sonar. It concludes with system design examples.
