Abstract :
Antenna arrays suitable for passive covert radar applications are discussed in this paper. The system design requirements are accurately presented and reflected in the array parameters. Direction finding techniques are evaluated in connection with a circular array antenna configuration. Initial theoretic results obtained with a passive covert radar developed at the NATO C3 Agency are presented as well.
