Comparison of Adaptive and Nonadaptive Techniques

This chapter compares the performance of an adaptive radar resource management (RRM) technique to that of a nonadaptive technique, using modeling and simulation. Performance metrics are presented, followed by the simulation tool Adapt_MFR that is used in the performance study. The adaptive RRM technique is described, and the details of its adaptive prioritization, scheduling, and track update intervals are quantified. Finally, we present the scenario under consideration and the results of the performance comparison.
