  • Abstract
    This paper presents a novel phase correction technique for Passive Radar which uses targets of opportunity present in the target area as references. The proposed methodology is quite simple and enables the use of low cost hardware with independent oscillators for the reference and surveillance channels which can be geographically distributed.
