Abstract
We consider how networks of radar sensors can offer a counter to stealth technology whilst simultaneously providing more detailed information for improved target classification. Specifically, it is shown how multiple independent sensors can provide an energetically more efficient collector of radar scatter. Further, the relative merits of non-coherent and coherent dependent networks are discussed particularly emphasising the balance between increased performance and increased complexity and cost
