Synopsis

This book collects, reviews and analyses recent research on passive radars on moving platforms. Due to the nature of the typical radar applications performed by moving platforms and the signals of opportunity typically exploited for passive radar purposes, which are not designed for reception while in motion, the special case of passive radar mounted on moving platforms is highly challenging.

Passive Radars on Moving Platforms is intended for both passive radar experts and readers less familiar with the general topic of passive radar. The editors provide useful background information before fully exploring various research activities from a selection of working groups worldwide. An overview of operational systems is given, with considerations on multiple receiving channel calibration and hardware realization of radar systems based on the software defined radio (SDR) principle. The concluding chapter offers some outlook on what passive radar could look like in the near future, namely a component of a bigger architecture usually referred to as system of systems (SoS). Additionally, results of on-going activities related to new potential illuminators of opportunity for passive radar are covered.

Providing a thorough overview of techniques, challenges and applications that are enabled when a passive radar is operated from a moving platform, this book will be of interest to radar engineers, researchers into radar design, and the wider radar signal processing community.

Diego Cristallini is the head of the Passive Radar Group at Fraunhofer FHR, Germany. His research interests are in multi-channel radar signal processing, in STAP, GMTI, SAR, and passive radar. Dr Cristallini serves as a reviewer for several international technical journals. He is also a regular lecturer at the Fraunhofer International Summer School on Radar and SAR. Dr Cristallini is the co-chair of the NATO group SET-242 on "Passive radars on moving platforms."

Daniel W. O'Hagan is the head of the Passive Radar and Anti-Jamming Techniques Department (PSR) at Fraunhofer FHR, Germany. He is associate professor of radar at the University of Cape Town (UCT) and professor at the University of Birmingham, UK. He has been lecturing full postgraduate (Masters and PhD) courses on radar systems and antenna array synthesis since 2014. Professor O'Hagan is the chair of two full-status NATO groups, SET-268 and SET-296.
