Syncronization and Data Transmission in Multistatic Radar Systems

Authors: Svetlichnyy Yu. A., Degtyarev P. A.

Annotation: The article deals with the practical aspects of synchronization and data transferring in multistatic radar systems. Active, semi-active, passive multistatic systems have similar principles of signal processing, where the determining element of achieving potential accuracy is the synchronization unit, especially in wireless mode. Radiocommunication, radiolocation algorithms are based at common SDR software-hardware platform. The work is focused on typical schemes and methods of distributed multiposion radar synthesis and testing. Synchronization and communication schemes and test results, achieved in practical applications, are presented.

Keywords: synchronization, communication, multilateration, multistatic, radar, surveillance system
