This third and final volume in the Principles of Modern Radar series
brings all the fundamentals and advanced techniques of the prior volumes
to their logical conclusion by presenting the applications of radar.
This unique book provides in-depth discussions of the most important
areas in current radar practice, serving primarily radar practitioners
and advanced graduate students.
For those needing to become experts in an advanced technology or
application area, Radar Applications should be the foundation of their
research before they tackle in-depth, single topic advanced books and
literature. These advanced books are suggested at the end of each
chapter to guide readers toward the best published works.
Principles of Modern Radar: Radar Applications provides concise
descriptions of the purposes, principal issues, and radar methods found
in a wide variety of current radar types with military, commercial, and
civilian uses. These types of radar include continuous wave (CW) radar,
weather and air traffic control, pulse Doppler, fire control, ground
moving target indication, and unconventional applications such as
materials and ground penetrating radar.
This book combines the best attributes of edited and single-author
references. It draws on the expertise of authors from academia and
industry, active in both teaching and ongoing research. These
specialists provide greater depth and experience over the broad range of
radar topics than could any single author. As with the entire Principles
of Modern Radar series, this book was community reviewed by experts from
around the world for coherence and consistency.
