Abstract

The main challenge of future phased array multifunction radar will be to optimise the radar time budget to avoid deleterious overload effects. For this purpose, we propose a new technique for priority assignment of Search Domains. Then, we have developed new algorithms for most threatening trajectories computation based on Calculus of Variations approach developed for "shortest path computation" in image processing.
