Abstract :
In conjunction with the problem of the target selection on a clutter background with quasi-continuous radiation, the analysis of the spatial radar signal processing is made. The analysis is made for a case of non-isotropic array elements. The calculation results of the optimized receiving antenna pattern and the attained signal-to-noise ratio for the confirmation of the efficiency of the cylindrical array system with the azimuth scanning rate increase are given.
