This state-of-the-art reference enumerates the implementation of various types of adaptive processing as applied to radar. The book walks you through adaptive approaches to radar signal processing, by detailing the basic concepts of various techniques and then developing equations to analyze their performance. Finally, it presents curves that clearly illustrate the attained performance. To meet the varying needs of this audience, the text provides details of the performance equation derivations. It is supported by 798 equations and 93 illustrations.
