(Radar signals, *Scattering, Radar targets.) Theses, Video integration. Radar is considered as a means of producing a map in two coordinates (x and y) of a dense distribution of scatterers. It is assumed that a complex unit-scatterer return h(t;x,y) and a complex scatterer- ensity function (x,y) CAN BE DEFINED SUCH THAT: (a) h(t;x,y) depends only on the radar; (b) (x,y) depends only on the scatterer distribution; (c) the complex video representation of the echo signal is s(t) = (x,y) h( T;X,Y) dxdy; and (d) an x-y display of (x,y) approximates, in some practically useful way, a map of the distribution of scattering objects in the x-y plane. The above conditions are satisfied if x and y are taken to be time delay and Doppler frequency. Determination of (x, y) is assumed to be the objective of the radar.
