bistatic forward scattering radar, antenna array, space-time processing, beamforming, amplitude detectionAbstract
The space-time processing algorithm for bistatic forward scattering radar is considered, which is based on application of antenna arrays with beamforming after amplitude detection in receive channels of non-directional elements. It is shown that ambiguity of measured angles of arrival can be easily worked out. Mathematical modeling results are obtained.References
