Download or read book Comparison of Fast Fourier Transforms with Other Transforms in Signal Processing for Tactical Radar Target Identification written by and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The High Resolution Radar Branch of the Rome Air Development Center has developed a tactical target identification (TTI) pulsed-Doppler radar system which generates two-dimensional 'images' of aircraft. The signal processing technique utilizes the fast Fourier transform (FFT) to produce a slant-range versus cross-range display. If the TTI system is to be effectively employed in an aerial warfare environment then real-time processing is necessary. In an effort to speedup the signal processing several alternative transforms were studied as possible substitutes for the FFT. The Karhunen-Loeve, Cosine (Sine), Mellin, and Hankel transforms were investigated and found to be infeasible for use in TTI imaging. The Walsh (Hadamard) transform was studied in detail and tested in a simulation program and found that it could not be utilized in the TTI signal processing. Two methods of converting from the Walsh sequency domain to the Fourier frequency domain were studied. The first scheme, a recursive relationship between the arithmetic and logical autocorrelation functions as presented by Robinson was discovered to be incorrect. The second, a method of computing the Fourier coefficients from the Walsh coefficients of a function was demonstrated to be too time consuming to be implemented in TTI signal processing. Several floating-point FFT implementations were tested using the simulation program. Also, several fixed-point FFT algorithms were derived and tested. All of these were evaluated on the basis of speed and memory requirements and one fixed-point FFT algorithm was shown to be fast enough and accurate enough for implementation on the TTI Minicomputer.

Book Spectral Techniques and Fault Detection

Download or read book Spectral Techniques and Fault Detection written by Marg Karpovsky and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 619 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spectral Techniques and Fault Detection focuses on the spectral techniques for the analysis, testing, and design of digital devices. This book discusses the error detection and correction in digital devices. Organized into 10 chapters, this book starts with an overview of the concepts and tools to evaluate the applicability of various spectral approaches and fault-detection techniques to the design. This text then describes the class of generalized Programmable Logic Array configurations called Encoded PLAs. Other chapters consider the two-sided Chrestenson Transform to the analysis of some pattern properties. This book describes as well a certain type of cellular arrays for highly parallel processing, namely, three-dimensional arrays. The final chapter deals with the system design methods that allow and encourage designers to incorporate the necessary distributed error correction throughout any digital system. This book is a valuable resource for graduate students and engineers working in the fields of logic design, spectral techniques, testing, and self-testing of digital devices.

Book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences

Download or read book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences written by W. H. Shafer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and dis seminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the ac tivity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all concerned if the printing and distribution of the volume were handled by an international publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Corporation of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 22 (thesis year 1977) a total of 10,658 theses titles from 28 Canadian and 227 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for theses titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. While Volume 22 reports theses submitted in 1977, on occasion, certain universities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.

Book Technology Security and National Power

Download or read book Technology Security and National Power written by Stephen D. Bryen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Technology Security and National Power, Stephen D. Bryen shows how the United States has squandered its technological leadership through unwise policies. Starting from biblical times, he shows how technology has either increased national power or led to military and political catastrophe. He goes on to show how the US has eroded its technological advantages, endangering its own security.The scope ofTechnology Security and National Power extends across 3,000 years of history, from an induced plague in Athens to chemical weapons at Ypres to an atomic bomb on Hiroshima to the nuclear balance of terror. It describes new weapons systems and stealth jets, cyber attacks on national infrastructure, the looting of America's Defense secrets, and much more. The core thesis is supported by unique insight and new documentation that reaches into today's conflicted world.More than a litany of recent failures and historical errors, this book is a wake-up call for political actors and government officials who seem unable to understand the threat. Technology Security and National Power proposes that the United States can again become a winner in today's globalized environment.
