I'm sorry, an error slipped into my formula's when I copied them from my notes. Here are the correct ones : point-to-point : (1) SNR = P * (2*pi*rt / lambda)^2 * (rr/(2*R))^2 * 1/(BW*kT) radar: (2) SNR = P * (2*pi*rt / lambda)^2 * ( ro^2 / (4*R^2) ) * (rr/(2*R))^2 * 1/(BW*kT) The factor between them ( ro^2 / (4*R^2) ) (or (ro/(2*R))^2 if you will) remains the same Rob
