Abstract
BistaticTracking Radar (BTR) is an advanced mode of conventional BistaticRadar (BR) which is used for target detection. The principle of working of BTR system is same as that for Mono Static Tracking Radar (MTR), with the difference that the transmitter is apart from the receiver,and they operate separately and independently. In this paper,the associated equations that control the BTR system operation, was derived in a simple manner. These equations determine the receiver and transmitter antenna positions to keep their lines of sight meet at the target, beside the assurance of tracking the target during maneuvering. The operation of the system was explained and the simulation program was made to characterize the operation of the system by using the derived equations in this paper.
