Abstract:
This paper presents results from experiments that utilize Global-Positioning-System-like terrestrial positioning signals in a passive radar system to track aircraft over a metropolitan area. Unlike communication signals, these positioning signals offer unique properties that are advantageous for a passive radar. Exploitation of these properties provides an opportunity to reduce hardware complexity and to enable passive radar systems with a lower cost. This paper provides a detailed description of the signal processing in the context of low-cost hardware.
