What methods can be used to achieve good angle accuracy with radars which have a wide field of view? How to perform digital beamforming in situations with several interfering radars (subarrays with wide beams pick up more noise than a narrow beam.) Can (partly) passive radars be used for target estimation? Use the transmitted signal from other nearby radars.
