  • Abstract
    Passive radar is a special kind of radar system that utilizes electromagnetic radiation already present in the environment to detect targets as well as estimate target parameters. This paper discusses the use of GSM base station as a non-cooperative illuminator for bistatic passive radar operation. The design and implementation of this novel passive radar system is introduced. Some initial experimental results show the viability of using GSM signal to detect ground moving targets.
