Abstract

An improved radar system and technique are disclosed for use in detecting and tracking moving or stationary targets within the antenna field of view. Precise correction of doppler induced location errors is provided by the use of raw sensor data. Return signals are doppler processed, phase shifted and compared in a manner which preserves the angle of arrival of a moving target irrespective of the boresight direction. Stationary target return signals are constructively combined so as to augment the target signal gain independent of the antenna boresight direction.
