This book is a practitioner's guide to all aspects of pulse Doppler
radar. It concentrates on airborne military radar systems since
they are the most used, most complex, and most interesting of the
pulse Doppler radars; however, ground-based and non-military
systems are also included. It covers the fundamental science,
signal processing, hardware issues, systems design and case studies
of typical systems. It will be a useful resource for engineers of
all types (hardware, software and systems), academics,
post-graduate students, scientists in radar and radar electronic
warfare sectors and military staff. Case studies add interest and
credibility by illustrating how and where the ideas presented
within the book work in real life. This book is an important
reference providing complete and up-to-date coverage of a
significant area of radar technology and is an important source for
engineers and academics who lecture this subject.

KEY FEATURES Medium PRF waveform design and analysis including: *
Methods of selection of precise PRF values, * PRF schedule
design, * Strategies to combat the ghosting problem, * Minimize
range/velocity blindness and minimize dwell time. * Case studies
on generic radar types such as airborne fire control radar,
airborne early warning radar, active radar missile seekers and
air defense radars.
