| description | Interest in passive radar systems is increasing
because of its hidden operational capabilities, cost effectiveness and low
maintenance requirements. The greatest advantage of these systems is that they
can detect and follow targets using the illuminators in the environment without
the need for a dedicated transmitter. In recent years, the increasing number of
wireless transmitters have begun to be gathered at a single point, creating new
opportunities for passive radar systems. In this study, target detection
performance in passive radar systems by using multiple frequency FM radio
broadcasts from a common transmitter point is investigated. Accordingly, a
real-time applicable method proposed that combines the singular channels on a
broad frequency band with software based radio technologies to improve target
detection performance. It has been shown that the proposed method improves the
target detection performance of FM signals without introducing additional load
to the system and reduces the performance fluctuations and ghost targets that
are generated in passive radar systems due to the modulation content. |
