IMPROVED AZIMUTH ACCURACY FOR A DIGITAL BEAMFORMING PERIMETER SURVEILLANCE RADAR
Abstract
In Digital Beamforming (DBF) radars, multiple beams are formed simultaneously at different azimuth and/or elevation angles to monitor large areas of interest. In order to estimate the location of a target in azimuth without specifically steering the beams at the target or using special techniques such as monopulse, simple centroid schemes can be used. This assumes that a target is seen by more than one beam, which requires the beam pattern to …
