Passive radar applications

Until recent years, conventional radar systems were unable to satisfy such growing cost of sivil air survailence radars maintaince and advancements of military avionics mostly due to computing capacity. This limitations overcomed by designing much more complex electronic solutions resulting more produce and maintaince cost. Nowadays, achievements in the Computer Technologies makes computing capacity more accesible and more cheaper so some unimplementable radar techiques, due the computing limitaions, become popular again. Moreover idea of the using non co-operative illuminators put forward called passive systems. Scientitic researches show these passive systems offers great opportunity and could fil the gap of low cost and high tech demands on both sivil and military air survialince systems. This thesis consantrate theorical and simulation work about Passive Coherent Location(PCL) or sometimes refered as Passive Bistatik Radar(PBR) systems. Therewithal pros and cons of these systems will be presented as well as future works.
