Passive multistatic radar based on long-term evolution signals

Passive multistatic radar has drawn much attention in recent years owing to the several advantages of operating in a distributed configuration that have already been demonstrated for active radar. In a passive setup, the transmitted signal can be selected from among several illuminators occupying the electromagnetic spectrum. In this paper, we compute the non-coherent and coherent ambiguity function expressions using 4G long term evolution signals as the illuminators of opportunity.
