  • Abstract
    The author shows that the metric tensor galphabeta is sufficient to accurately derive some of the most important system surveillance characteristics of static and rotating phased array radars. The author presents a novel and generalised method using metric spaces on Riemann manifolds as a viable approach for investigating phased array radar system design characteristics that is mathematically tractable and avoids complex iterative and non-analytic procedures.
