Abstract

An estimate of the position of a point target moving in the Fresnel zone of a multiposition antenna system is considered in the case of coherent space-time processing of the received broadband signals. The effect of the amplitude and phase characteristics of the receiving elements of the antenna system on the accuray with which the target coordinates and their derivatives are estimated is analyzed.
