  • Abstract
    This paper reviews important aspects of waveform diversity development, and discusses how waveform diversity, distributed processing, spatial diversity, and knowledge-based processing can be integrated for optimum surveillance system performance. A next-generation surveillance concept is proposed, which is composed of a distributed constellation of autonomous sensors. This presentation was previously presented at the 2008 NATO Lecture Series on Waveform Diversity (SET119).
