The proposed phased array breaks the nexus between the surveillance and tracking functions of a radar system completely, and meets the modern challenges imposed by a dense multitarget environment where clutter, rain, or chaff are present. Compared to a conventional phased array, the novel array yields an order magnitude improvement in the time available to perform the above radar functions, and further improvements are easily attainable. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
