Abstract :
This paper presents recent results of PCL multistatic trials, with a set of passive receivers using FM and DVB-T transmitters as illuminators. These interesting results pave the way for the architecture of the future multi-band/multi-receiver passive radar. The paper addresses the following topics: · FM and DVB-T opportunity illuminators, · Experimental results with FM, · Experimental results with DVB-T, · Analysis and perspectives for the future systems.
