[IEEE 2018 International Conference on Radar (RADAR) - Brisbane, Australia (2018.8.27-2018.8.31)] 2018 International Conference on Radar (RADAR) - Predicting Phased Array Radar Performance Through Modelling

摘要： Modelling and simulation can reduce risk associated with complex radar system development because design choices can be validated before any hardware is developed. Models can also be used to accelerate algorithm development for existing radar systems. This paper describes the modelling results for two phased array radar designs: an MTI radar and a MIMO radar. These systems were modelled and then tested with radar data generated with commercially available radar hardware. The performance results for both models and the hardware-fed processing are analyzed and compared.
