This authoritative volume is a smart choice for radar engineers at all levels striving to optimize system performance, as well as graduate students looking to gain a practical understanding of radar system design. The book helps readers master critical system analysis and design skills, and shows how to use digital computer simulation to verify that an analysis is correct and that a design is optimal. This comprehensive resource covers a wide range of essential topics, from noise and clutter generation, filters, and fast Fourier transforms...to ambiguity functions, antennas, target detection...to the Monte Carlo method, constant false alarm rate (CFAR) processing, and moving target indicators (MTI).A CD-ROM is included! It contains over 200 valuable simulation and implementation tools, written in C++, to help practitioners with a wide range of design challenges in the field.
