The purpose of this paper is to present an overview of some of the management and processing techniques which are central to remote sensing applications of skywave radars such as JINDALEE: They can be grouped into three categories: resource allocation, propagation modelling, signal processing. The viability of a skywave radar employed for remote sensing measurements depends primarily on the sophistication of its ionospheric monitoring and resource allocation techniques. Considerable gains may be obtained by means of better signal processing methods, but these require care in their selection and application. Adaptive processing control which matches techniques to data quality is the only approach likely to match the high data acquisition rates of modern skywave radars. In the future one can expect to see knowledge-based systems serving in a variety of radar management and data interpretation roles; further ahead, it seems likely that multistatic configurations will enhance skywave radar performance.
