Description
Summary:The purpose of the paper is to show how the Universal Software Radio Peripheral (USRP) technology, typically used for implementing telecommunication systems, can be used for realizing passive radars. Specifically in this paper a multiband passive radar is considered. A preliminary study on the signals of opportunity is presented where real and simulated radar ambiguity functions have been evaluated. An experimental system has been set up and live data acquired both for UMTS and DVB-T signals in order to verify the capability of the proposed passive radar demonstrator.
