Overview of Multi-source Parameter Estimation and Jamming Mitigation for Monopulse Radars

Abstract

Monopulse is a mainstream technique used to acquire the angle information about active radar systems that are widely used in air defense warning, target tracking, and precision guidance. This study briefly reviews the development history of the monopulse theory and technology for the main-lobe multi-source condition. The importance of several key technologies within multi-source parameters estimation and multisource jamming mitigation is also summarized. Finally, the future development of monopulse technology to resolve the problem of multi-source jamming is considered.
