- Summary:
- "An updated version of the book published in 2001, this second edition includes new material on compressed sensing and its possible application to beam forming, results for phase-only-nulling against jammers, descriptions of further algorithms for superresolution and the reconnaissance of other radiating sources. This book also features a new chapter on radar operation by passive coherent location and the extension and explanation of the basic ideas for MIMO-radar. In addition to the coverage of antennas, array signal processing, adaptive digital beamforming and adaptive monopulse, several modern systems are described including space-time adaptive processing (STAP), moving target detection using synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and several other experimental phased array radar systems."--Publisher's description.
