Quantum radar with digital waveform generators
Fred E. Daum · 2020
Quantum radars at X-Band suffer from two major issues today: cost and performance. The cost of quantum radar at X-Band is roughly ten orders of magnitude more than the corresponding classical radar today. Also, the detection performance of experimental quantum radars at X-Band is not any better than the optimal classical radar today. We discuss future research in X-Band quantum radars, including a theoretical idea to simulate quantum radar without cryogenic dilution refrigerators. This idea uses digital waveform generation rather than analog signal generation.
