Frequency Hopped Radar n Slow Hop u Multiple pulses on same carrier frequency u Standard P(Hit) equations apply n Fast Hop u Multiple frequencies per pulse F Spreads pulse energy around, aids stealthiness u SNR may change u Standard P(Hit) equations apply u Want |f i – f j | large relative to t h F Include expected doppler shift F Can estimate shape of Ambiguity Function
