Radar systems peak detection and tracking / Michael O.Kolawole. - New Delhi : Newnes, 2006, 2010c. - vi,363p. : ill. ; 24 cm.
index present
Preface. PART I: Essential Relational Functions; Understanding Radar Fundamentals; Antenna Physics and Radar Measurements; The Radar Equations; Antenna Arrays. PART II IONOSPHERE AND HF SKYWAVE RADAR: The Ionosphere and Its Effect on HF Skywave Propagation; Skywave radar. PART III PROBABILITY THEORY, DECISION THEORY AND SIGNAL PEAK DETECTION: Elements of probability theory and statistical concepts; Decision theory; Signal Peak Detection. PART IV: Parameter Estimation and Filtering; Tracking. Conclusion; Summary; References; Problems; Glossary of Terms; Index.
As well as being fully up-to-date, this book provides wider subject coverage than many other radar books. The inclusion of a chapter on Skywave Radar, and full consideration of HF / OTH issues makes this book especially relevant for communications engineers and the defence sector. * Explains key theory and mathematics from square one, using case studies where relevant * Designed so that mathematical sections can be
