Battlefield radars became a major technology thrust in the late 1960s based on several advances in radar technology. The military needed airborne radar systems for all weather, day-night surveillance of an area to protect borders. These requirements have also been extended since 1980 for monitoring areas against trafficking of people and animals, along with assessment of the destruction of earth resources. This has been a very difficult radar system engineering process, due to the need for characterizing the objects and clutter for high confidence surveillance.

Two US radar research organizations have been leaders in new system designs and development of radar signal processing algorithms: MIT Lincoln Laboratory in Lexington, Massachusetts, has focused on the military applications; and NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, have developed the earth resources and natural disaster monitoring. A third source of radar system concepts and necessary program support has been the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) in Arlington, Virginia. Much of the content of this text has been drawn from the authors association with these leaders in the field.
