Introduction to RF Stealth by David L.

by David A. Lynch

This is the first and only book focused on the complete aspects of RF Stealth design. It explains the use of first order methods for the design of active and passive stealth properties. Everything from Electronic Order of Battle to key component design is covered. The book is a How to allowing estimation of RCS, emitter interceptability, IR signature with speed, emitter footprints, terrain obscuration and target visibility, ambient spectra, ambient pulse density, detection performance, antenna, filter and pulse compression sidelobes, emitter location accuracy, stealthy pulse compression design, stealthy antenna design, signal processor performance, and more. Unique compilations of the leading parameters of many emitters and interceptors are included, along with a CD of analytical software for each chapter, 180 program routines in Excel and MathCad. This will be the standard text for years to come, as it a firm and proven basis for new developments.
