Radar System Performance Modeling (2005) By G. Richard Curry
 
Radars play a vital and ever-expanding role as integral parts of complex air traffic control, ballistic missile defence, air defence, and targeting systems for land attack. This work helps the reader to evaluate the performance of radars in system tasks, and quantify the impact of radar operation on system performance. The book provides systems-level radar modelling tools for both the analyst and programmer, and furnishes insight on how to use the models in system analysis.
 
Turn to this expanded second edition of an Artech House bestseller for the most current and comprehensive coverage of radar system performance analysis and system-level modeling. This revised edition features new material on airborne and space-based radar, radar tracking techniques, radar system design, and operational and performance issues. It also provides new detailed examples, problem sets and solutions, and a comprehensive self-test to evaluate your understanding. Featuring over 255 equations and more than 120 illustrations, this systematic reference offers you a clear understanding of the basics of radar design, operation and applications, including radar configurations, radar parameters, radar waveform characteristics, and functional radar models and their software representations. It provides you with fully developed models for radar detection, search modes, measurement and tracking, environmental effects, countermeasures and counter-countermeasures, and airborne and space-based radar. A final section includes examples that combine the various radar models together to solve practical radar problems.
