Radar Warning Receiver System Design and Analysis (21 hrs)

Course Description

This SECRET/NOFORN course provides you with a detailed knowledge of radar warning receiver (RWR) systems and technology. The coursework covers RWR tactical employment, threat systems and waveforms, RWR antenna analysis, characteristics of various receivers and receiver combinations, signal processing approaches, and system analysis. Detailed briefings are presented on four specific systems. The course uses the case-study method, and learners will be assigned RWR-related design problems to analyze and present.
