Quantum Radar: A Brief Analytical Study

Abstract

The quantum computing began with the concern of Richard Feynman to simulate the non-classical physical theories, Shor's algorithm showed the power of the quantum mechanics when solved a classical problem with it, these facts push the technology to discover and implement the quantum illumination, this discovery made a huge change in sensing theory, moreover, the implemented such as phenomena with a classical radar, make a play role in detecting strategies in sensing the stealth objects (whatever be an aircraft or drones), even more, the quantum radar can detect in an efficient way and more accuracy the natural debris outside the atmosphere, also, the quantum radar can work even though, in nosy, foggy, and high-temperature environment, all these features make the quantum radar promising emerging technology deserve to develop and enhanced in theoretical and technical ways. this paper provided a short analysis study to the most common types of quantum radar showing their cons and pros and could be used either in civil or military fields.
