Cognitive radar is changing what radar systems can do—from simply detecting targets to sensing, learning, reasoning, and adapting in real time.

Cognitive Radar Systems Handbook gives you a structured, engineering-focused introduction to the technologies behind intelligent and adaptive sensing. Instead of treating radar signal processing, machine learning, waveform design, and system architecture as separate subjects, this handbook shows how they work together inside a modern closed-loop cognitive radar system.
Inside, you’ll learn how to:

Build a strong foundation in radar physics, range equations, antennas, phased arrays, propagation, and radar cross section
Understand pulse compression, Doppler processing, CFAR, STAP, interference mitigation, and adaptive waveform design
Apply machine learning, deep learning, reinforcement learning, and Bayesian reasoning to radar problems
Explore cognitive waveform selection, environmental awareness, online learning, and dynamic resource management
Understand target detection, multi-target tracking, automatic target recognition, and uncertainty management
Examine airborne, space-based, automotive, weather, electronic warfare, and spectrum-sharing applications
Connect algorithms to practical hardware using software-defined radar, FPGAs, GPUs, simulation, and performance validation

Designed for engineering students, radar practitioners, researchers, signal-processing professionals, and technically motivated readers, the book combines classical radar engineering with the machine intelligence techniques shaping the next generation of adaptive sensing.
With 16 structured chapters, chapter summaries, diagrams, key equations, a glossary, and references, it works both as a progressive learning resource and as a technical reference you can return to when tackling specific radar problems.
