Abstract :
`Pilot´ is an FMCW tactical navigational radar which uses the high time-bandwidth product of frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) to provide excellent low probability of intercept (LPI) characteristics. It is shown that single antenna FMCW operation is feasible and practical and that FMCW MTI (moving target indication) can be implemented efficiently by using a correlation receiver
