Abstract :
All radar systems are inherently intelligent. All radars have little to no intelligence. Whilst at first sight these two sentences may appear completely contradictory they are, in fact, wholly consistent. The difference between the two is in the use of the word systems which additionally embraces the human being (radar operator) who not only is an integral part of any radar system but is the source of intelligence that enables radar sensor to provide a useful and valuable decision making function. In this paper we examine the nature, role and value of intelligence in radar systems.
