Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The original campus of the University of Michigan was nearly a perfect square about a half-mile along a side. A street-sized walk, appropriately called the Diag, runs diagonally across this square, connecting its southeast and northwest corners. In 1904 a new engineering building was either started or finished (I do not remember which) to house classrooms. When another engineering building was built on the expanded campus across the street from it many years later, the old building came to be known as West Engine, to distinguish it from the new East Engine. Old West Engine is (or maybe by now, was) a four-story, L-shaped structure that stood at the southeast corner of the original campus. It was built with an arch in it to straddle the Diag at the apex of the L. You walked over the Engineering Arch to get from one leg of the L to the other if you were inside the building, and you walked under it when you entered the campus from the southeast corner. Affixed to the masonry wall of the arch was a plaque I often noted in passing. It bore a quote attributed to Horace Greeley (1811-1872), who I did not know at the time was the founder, editor, and publisher of the New York Tribune. It said, simply, Young man, when theory and practice differ, use your horse sense. The suggestion seems worthy of an exclamation point instead of a period, but I do not remember if it had one.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The leading text and reference on radar cross section (RCS) theory and applications, this work presents a comparison of two radar signal strengths. One is the strength of the radar bean sweeping over a target, the other is the strength of the reflected echo senses by the receiver. This book shows how the RCS "gauge" can be predicted for theoretical objects.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The following provides a brief and informal account of an analysis technique used by the Electronic Warfare Division (EWD) to produce high range resolution radar cross-section (RCS) profiles of maritime targets. We begin by giving a simple theoretical discussion of the basic principle behind the technique employed, and then move on to describe the computer program used to carry out the first stage of the RCS analysis and make comparison with other work. High range resolution RCS profiles, were derived for a maritime target with the use of a coherent radar system developed by the Microwave Radar Division (MRD). Synthetic range profiles were obtained for the ship by exploiting the reciprocal relationship that exists, in the context of the present work, between range and frequency and by employing a fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithm to evaluate the inverse discrete Fourier transform (IDFT). The technique is referred to in the literature as stepped frequency imaging. Keywords: Active and passive radar detection and equipment, Radar cross section, Australia, EWD, RCS. (JG).

This book was released on 2020-06-16 with total page 570 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Radar-related technology is mainly processed within the time and frequency domains but, at the same time, is a multi-dimensional integrated system including a spatial domain for transmitting and receiving electromagnetic waves. As a result of the enormous technological advancements of the pioneers actively discussed in this book, research and development in multi-dimensional undeveloped areas is expected to continue. This book contains state-of-the-art work that should guide your research.

This book was released on 2023-11-20 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the evolvement of autonomous driving technology, obtaining reliable 3-D environmental information is an indispensable task in approaching safe driving. The operational behavior of automotive radars can be precisely evaluated in a virtual test environment by modeling its surrounding, specifically vulnerable road users (VRUs). Such a realistic model can be generated based on the radar cross section (RCS) and Doppler signatures of a VRU. Therefore, this work proposes a high-resolution RCS measurement technique to determine the relevant scattering points of different VRUs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A high-level text that synthesizes diverse research areas for characterizing objects (targets) from radar data and establishes a novel analysis framework for a class of signal processing techniques useful for high-resolution radar signature modeling. The only text to integrate a diverse body of work on characterizing objects (targets) from radar data into a common analysis framework, this book brings together the results of research papers and technical reports providing improved resolution and precision in radar target signature modeling and target motion solutions. It offers comprehensive coverage related to basic radar concepts, signal representation, and radar measurements; the development of advanced analysis tools essential for high-resolution signature modeling; the development of novel wideband and narrowband radar imaging techniques; the application of 2D spectral estimation theory to wideband signal processing; ultra-wideband scattering phenomenology and sparse-band sensor data fusion; and the integration of field measurements into the radar signature modeling process. The analysis techniques developed in the text provide the framework for a novel approach, called measurements-based modeling (MBM), to model target signatures by incorporating measurement data into the signature model of the target. Extensive examples throughout compare the performance of the new techniques with that of conventional analysis techniques. The first systematic, comprehensive synthesis of wide-ranging research areas for characterizing targets from radar data A deeply researched, lucid presentation enriched by extensive illustrations and examples An essential reference for experts in radar and signal processing, professional engineers in related fields, and graduate students

Download or read book A Minimum Range Criterion for RCS Radar Cross Section Measurements of a Target Dominated by Point Scatterers written by B. M. Welsh and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis develops a minimum range criterion for radar cross-section measurements by neglecting the phase of the incident field at the target and considering only the amplitude distribution. In contrast to the traditional minimum range criterion, developed for a flat target characterized by specular reflection, the target examined in this thesis is characterized by a number of independent point scatterers located on the target surface. Instead of enforcing point by point accuracy, accuracy of the average target RCS is required, averaging over a number of measurements. The location of the point scatterers on the target are described probabilistically; the expected average measured RCS versus target range is calculated, and compared to results of a Monte-Carlo simulation. The traditional minimum range criterion is compared to the new minimum range criterion. The traditional minimum range criterion, based on phase uniformity across the target, requires minimum measurement ranges that are much larger than those ranges dictated by the new minimum range criterion for targets dominated by point scattering.
