Abstract
This chapter provides a first insight into the principle of operation of a passive radar. The bistatic geometry will be introduced as well as the concepts of bistatic range and bistatic Doppler resolution. The well-known radar equation is also derived for the specific case of a bistatic passive radar. In addition, basic schemes for signal processing are presented together with a glimpse of the main issues related to the direct signal suppression.
