Abstract: Problem of estimating the target coordinates from the Doppler frequency and azimuth in forward-scattering bistatic radar is considered. The cases of uniform rectilinear motion of target, low-flying target and maneuvering target are investigated. Recommendations for estimating the target coordinates in the radar system with additional measurements of elevation angle (in 3D system) are given. In the final part of the article phase dual frequency range measurement method in forward-scattering bistatic radar is considered.

Keywords: estimation the target location, bistatic radar system, forward-scattering radar, approximate dependence of the Doppler frequency and azimuth of the time, maneuvering target, three dimension forward-scattering radar system, phase dual frequency range measurement method.
