Abstract :
The paper presents the concept of passive detection of moving targets based on thermal radiation in the microwave region. The fundamental problem istinction between stationary and moving targets is solved by range-Doppler correlation between signals obtained from different localizations in multi-static radiometric antenna constellations. The range equation and other limitations of the presented method are also discussed in the paper.
