Summary: | In this paper, we analyse various topologies of multiple antenna systems in radars. The results are presented by means of a novel detection theoretic approach to track the detection capability of radars. The new detection approach is more tractable than conventional 'probability of detection analysis' and is based on modelling of radar target as a modulator in an analogous communication system. This method is called the analogous communication system for a radar (ACSR) and quantifies 'detection' as being inversely proportional to bit error rates (BER) of the resulting communications channel. |
