Abstract
The paper presents a LOFAR Beamforming Simulator software developed for simulation of beamforming which can be used for enhancement of radiolocation capabilities of radioastronomical LOFAR station in the context of its use for passive radiolocation. The great challenge of ongoing research on such use of LOFAR stations is to collect sufficient, real LOFAR data to analyze countless cases that can occur in passive radar scenarios. For this reason, simulation of various cases is the most efficient way to analyse and to ascertain what can happen if these cases occur in the future in real passive radar systems. The operation principles and capabilities of the LOFAR Beamforming Simulator are described in this paper. The comparison of simulated results with equivalent, real ones confirms the corectness of the designed software.
