Conducted studies of the phased implementation of neural network technologies in the practice of processing radar information, providing for a gradual increase in the level of neural network methods in processing systems, have shown that the use of neural network technologies can improve the quality of radar information processing in the most difficult conditions that require high computing power, when the dynamics of changes in external conditions is very is high and traditional approaches to the creation of processing systems are not able to provide the required level of efficiency. The need to develop theoretical provisions for neural network processing of radar information was revealed, while the main features of information processing in radars determine the relevance of research devoted to preventing the reduction in the quality of radar images in conditions of a large number of targets and a complex «jamming» environment based on the rational use of neural network technology. Analysis of the phased implementation of neural network technologies in radar information processing systems, as well as the use of neural network technology for processing radar information in terms of search and research, makes it possible to increase the efficiency of neural network methods for all processing tasks. Assessment of the required performance of computational tools allows us to single out the main neural network paradigms, the use of which gives a tangible increase in the efficiency of radar information processing, such as multilayer perceptron, Hopfield associative memory and self-organizing Kohonen network, while it is possible to rank the proposed methods in accordance with the required performance, undemanding to computing power and implemented on existing or promising computing facilities with software implementation of neural network paradigms. The analysis of possible directions for improving the quality of radar information processing does not claim to fully cover the entire multifaceted area of such studies. In this paper, only the most universal and widespread neural network paradigms are considered and the main part of possible areas of their application is analyzed. However, the proposed options show that the use of neural network technologies in critical tasks will improve the efficiency of radar information processing for complex, rapidly changing external conditions. The use of the principles of self-learning and the developed apparatus for the synthesis of neural network methods will reduce the duration and complexity of theoretical research, the conduct of which is a necessary and mandatory part of the traditional approach. In the course of further research, some of the proposed methods can be refined, as well as the emergence of new methods that make it possible to more fully use the advantages of neural network technology. Carrying out further research work in these areas will give a powerful stimulating impetus for the creation in the future of highly efficient methods for processing radar information, which can be implemented on the available element base.
