As part of my undergraduate degree at the University of Aberdeen I completed an undergraduate thesis. In my thesis I considered the concept of a multi static passive radar system capable of tracking commercial civil aircraft using transmitters of opportunity.

An error is the can be defined as the difference between computed, estimated or measured value and the true, specified, or theoretically correct value. Any measurement made or position estimated by a radar system there is an associated error. Here I aim to identify the errors associated with a multi-static radar system’s geometry, where they originate and how to separate them from other system error to create a model.
