The Study of Possibility for Airplane Detection Using a Solar FSR System

The article analyses the possibility for survemance airplanes by using solar radio emission in a forward scatter radar system. It's estimated as the magnitude of SNR at the input of the signal detector calculated depending on the size of airplanes, the way of the airplanes moving relative to the baseline (perpendicularly or parallel) for various values of the solar radio emission. The time of the contact of airplanes with the receiver beam influences on the duration of the signal received from airplanes. Changes in the angular width of the FS zone and in values of the aircraft FS RCS depending on the frequency values of the solar radio emission are also taken account in the calculation of SNR.
