Learning outcomes
|
The course aims to acquaint students with the basic principles of radar systems. The course covers primary, secondary and passive radar systems. In the course, students will also get acquainted with the basic subsystems of radar, their interconnections and structures. The theoretical explanation will be complemented by seminars devoted to practical examples and analysis of real systems. Special attention will be paid to signal and data processing algorithms.
By studying the course, the student will gain knowledge of various types of radar systems, their concepts and the principle of detection and extraction of target coordinates, tracking and data fusion. The knowledge will also cover the issues of system design (radar range, radar signals, pulse compression, etc.)
