First published in 1953, this extremely useful monograph provides a clear and concise introduction to information and probability theory from the radar engineer's viewpoint. Following a lucid review of Shannon's clasic work on the mathematical theory of communications, the book turns to an analysis of detection of signals in noise. The final chapters show how exact mathematical formulations of radar problems can be simply derived from probability theory
