Overview

This is the first and only book focused on the complete aspects of RF Stealth design. It explains the use of first order methods for the design of active and passive stealth properties. Everything from Electronic Order of Battle to key component design is covered. The book is a β€œHow to” allowing estimation of RCS, emitter interceptability, IR signature with speed, emitter footprints, terrain obscuration and target visibility, ambient spectra, ambient pulse density, detection performance, antenna, filter and pulse compression sidelobes, emitter location accuracy, stealthy pulse compression design, stealthy antenna design, signal processor performance, and more. Unique compilations of the leading parameters of many emitters and interceptors are included, along with a CD of analytical software for each chapter, 180 program routines in Excel and MathCad. This will be the standard text for years to come, as it a firm and proven basis for new developments.

Synopsis

Focusing on aspects of RF Stealth design, this book/CD-ROM package explains first order methods for the design of active and passive stealth properties, covering a range of topics from Electronic Order of Battle to key component design. After an introduction to stealth systems, chapters cover interceptability parameters and analysis, intercept receivers, exploitation of the environment, stealth waveforms, stealth antennas and radomes, and signal processing. Compilations of the leading parameters of many emitters and interceptors are included, as well as analytical software, examples, and exercises for each chapter. The enclosed CD-ROM contains 116 MathCad program routines and Excel critical data sheets. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
