Abstract :
In this work we investigate rules for sensor placement as a way of improving multistatic radar system performances. We follow the approach of shaping the multistatic ambiguity function, but instead of different weighting rules and different waveforms, as studied in recent works, we consider different system geometries. We concentrate our attention on target resolution as a performance measure and present simulation results that illustrate the significance of adequate sensor placement in multistatic radar systems.
