An introduction to radar systems should ideally be self-contained and hands-on, a combination lacking in most radar texts. The first edition of Radar Systems Analysis and Design Using MATLAB® provided such an approach, and the second edition continues in the same vein. This edition has been updated, expanded, and reorganized to include advances in the field and to be more logical in sequence.Ideal for anyone encountering the topic for the first time or for professionals in need of on-the-job reference, this book features an abundance of MATLAB programs and code. Radar Systems Analysis and Design Using MATLAB®, Second Edition presents the fundamentals and principles of radar along with enough rigorous mathematical derivations to ensure that you gain a deep understanding. The author has extensively revised chapters on radar cross-section and polarization, matched filter and radar ambiguity function, and radar wave propagation. He also added information on topics such as PRN codes, multipath and refraction, clutter and MTI processing, and high range resolution.With all MATLAB functions updated to reflect version 7.0 and an expanded set of self-test problems, you will find this up-to-date text to be the most complete treatment of radar available, providing the hands-on tools that will enrich your learning. Booknews This reference/textbook for working engineers and students integrates MATLAB 5.0 with coverage of the fundamentals and issues in radar analysis and system design. Chapters replete with equations, illustrations, and examples address such topics as radar detection, waveforms analysis, antennas, and signal processing. Rather than including the software on CD-ROM for working the chapter-end problems, relevant functions and programs are downloadable from a companion Web site. Appends details on noise figures and decibel arithmetic; transform tables; common probability densities; and a MATLAB program and function name list. Mahafza is with the COLSA Corp., Huntsville, AL.
