In this report a new Illuminator of Opportunity / Passive Coherent Location research project being conducted in the Microwave Radar Branch of EWRD at DSTO is discussed. Details are provided about such aspects as transmitter selection and characteristics, experimental configurations and power budget studies. Furthermore, a preliminary analysis of two different transmitters' waveform ambiguity functions is presented. Early results from field experiments demonstrating detections of cars, trucks, trains, helicopters and aircraft using a terrestrial digital TV and geosynchronous satellite signals are also presented. The ability to detect and track targets is then demonstrated through the use of several CFAR and Track Before Detect algorithms. The report concludes by discussing potential application areas for this technology as well as highlighting the likely directions of future research.
