Abstract :
The paper presents a study of possibility of increasing the passive covert radar sensitivity by extending the coherent integration time. The long integration time induces the target range migration of moving targets. To overcome this problem, the usage of stretch processing is investigated. The paper shows, that even a simplified algorithm applying stretch processing concept, can significantly improve the radar sensitivity
