Bistatic radars have been a focus of study since the earliest days
of radar research. Despite this, until recently only a few bistatic
systems have crossed the experimental study threshold and,
consequently, there is little known about them compared to their
monostatic counterparts. Now, however, there is fast growing
interest in bistatic radar, due to its importance in the
development of defence, remote sensing, aerospace, meteorological
and navigation application fields, as well as its unique
peculiarities. These include: covert operational ability relevant
to the receiver position, counter-stealth ability, and a
potentially reduced cost as one transmitter can be used to send
information to several receivers.
With contributions from international experts working with
bistatic radar, this book, the first in a series on bistatic radar,
provides an introduction to the technology, covering information on
basic principles and design. Starting with a detailed look at
monostatic radar, examining the development of the field as a
whole, the book then goes on to:
introduce the classical aspects of bistatic radar such as
geometry, power budget and resolution; present an in depth analysis
of bistatic scattering of electromagnetic waves; provide an
overview of the bistatic radar potential which follows from their
bistatic nature; discuss forward scattering radar; investigate
forward scattering radar for air targets detection and tracking;
set out an experimental study of real world forward scattering
radar.
Bistatic Radars: Principles and Practice gives an up-to-date
overview of this important technology for practising engineers and
researchers involved in the design andimplementation of bistatic
radar in a range of industries. It is also a valuable reference for
advanced students taking special courses in radar technology.
