A thorough update to the classic Modern Radar Systems Analysis, this reference is a comprehensive and cohesive introduction to radar systems design and performance estimation. It offers professionals the knowledge they need to specify, evaluate, or apply radar technology in civilian or military systems. This unique resource provides radar engineers with time-saving and effective techniques for their work in such defense-related applications as weapon systems design and electronic warfare. The book presents accurate detection range equations for realistically estimating radar performance in a variety of practical situations. As radar systems evolve, designers, engineers, and analysts can turn to this book again and again to calculate and evaluate systems performance to keep up with the latest advances in radar technology. CD-ROM Included! The accompanying disc contains example calculations, exercise problems, and analysis programs written in MathCad 11 and HTML.

This book describes the steps involved in the evaluation of radar design and performance without complicated math. Easily understood by both engineers and non-technical personnel, it contains a comprehensive discussion of the complex factors involved in the radar design process.

This work provides engineers with the information necessary to integrate the fields of optics and electronics. Using a blend of expertise from industry, academia and government, the text shows the applications of this technology, both for future systems and in the evolution of today's radar. The areas covered include optical integrated circuits, optical control of phased array antennas, and high-speed signal processing. Intended for anyone interested in the future of radar, this text is augmented with 508 equations and 285 illustrations.

This book presents the basic principles, analyses, design formulas, and characteristics of various fin-line configurations. You'll find summaries of hundreds of rigorous formulas as well as approximate closed-form expressions, which can be readily programmed to generate design data for any structure.

Offers the basic meaning of terms and concepts related to radar, antenna and microwave technology. This reference text covers every aspect of the technology, including systems, components, targets, performance features, environmental effects and more. More than 5000 alphabetically-arranged entries offer the reader concise descriptions, listings of related terms, detailed equations and illustrations, and up-to-date references for more advanced research.
