A new algorithm is proposed for phased array radar search function resource allocation. The proposed algorithm adaptively priorities radar search regions and in overload situations, based on available resources, radar characteristics, maximum range and search regions, optimally allocates radar resources in order to maximize probability of detection. The performance of new algorithm is evaluated by the multifunction phased array radar simulation test bed. This simulation test bed provides capability to design and evaluate the performance of different radar resource management, target tracking and beam forming algorithms. Some results are presented that show capabilities of this simulation software for multifunction radar algorithms design and performance evaluation.
