Abstract :
The paper presents a family of passive coherent location (PCL) radar demonstrators, called PaRaDe (passive radar demonstrator), which were developed at Warsaw University of Technology. The systems exploit commercial FM radio transmitters as illuminators of opportunity in order to detect and track airborne targets. In the paper, the details of demonstrator systems are described and the results obtained in tests are presented.
