The second edition of Principles of Modern Radar Volume 2: Advanced Techniques is a comprehensive textbook serving as an important technical reference for practicing radar engineers and graduate students alike. The book covers essential topics in modern radar development, including radar waveform design and processing, radar imaging algorithms, multidimensional adaptive antenna processing techniques, target recognition approaches and methods, distributed radar algorithms, and an introduction to artificial intelligence and machine learning for radar.


The chapters are written by noted experts, and each provides breadth of coverage while maintaining engineering rigor appropriate for the intended audience.


The book focuses on five key areas:




Waveforms and radar operation in spectrum-sharing environments;
Synthetic aperture radar, including spotlight, stripmap, and interferometric operating modes;
Array processing and interference mitigation, with detailed discussion of adaptive digital beamforming, space-time adaptive processing, and MIMO radar;
Post processing considerations, including radar polarimetry and target recognition methods, and multisensor/multitarget tracking algorithms;
Processing methods for distributed radar, as well as introductions to AI/ML radar approaches and cognitive radar.


The popular first edition of Principles of Modern Radar Volume 2: Advanced Techniques has been completely updated and includes the latest developments in radar signal and data processing methods.

William L. Melvin currently serves as Chief Scientist and Technical Fellow, Sensors Division, at Systems and Technology Research (STR), USA. He served on the USAF Science Advisory Board, the Board on Army Science and Technology, the Air Force Studies Board on Developmental Planning organized through the National Academy of Science, and the White House-DoD American Mid-Band Initiative Team. Mark A. Richards is an independent consultant with over 35 years' experience in radar signal processing, having recently retired as professor from Georgia Institute of Technology's School of Electrical and Computer Engineering. He was Chief of the Radar Systems Division in the Georgia Tech Research Institute's Sensors and Electromagnetic Applications Laboratory, and for two years Program Manager at DARPA. Dr. Richards is a Fellow of the IEEE, cited "for contributions to radar signal processing education".
