Abstract :
This paper presents the new Passive Radar and Signal Intelligence signal chain possibilities that are created by the latest 12-bit 4.5GSPS ADC development. It focuses on a new high speed, high resolution Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) with high input bandwidth which enables the direct RF down conversion up to S-band. It allows new perspectives for application such as Passive Radar and Signals Intelligence.
