  • Abstract
    This paper discusses a way of describing radar architectures using descriptions derived from the formal (Backus Naur) descriptions of programming languages. Examples of such a language are given, together with examples of how radars could be described by it. The use of such a scheme to link together models of the radar and prove the correctness of its operation are discussed.
