Book excerpt: Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) has come into widespread use in several civilian and military applications. The focus of this paper is the military application of imaging point targets captured by an airborne SAR platform. Using the traditional SAR method of determining target motion by analyzing the difference between subsequent images takes a relatively large amount of processing resources. Using methods in this thesis, target motion can be estimated before even a single image is obtained, reducing the amount of time and power used by a significantly large amount. This thesis builds on work done by Brain Zaharri and David So. Brain Zaharri successfully created a SAR simulation that accurately models the airborne SAR system capturing data of a target space using the Range Doppler Algorithm (RDA). David So extended this work by adding functionality to determine target velocity in the range and azimuth directions by processing the intermittent data created by the several steps of Brian Zaharri’s simulation. This thesis shows further extensions of processing the intermittent data using unique methods. The methods in this thesis successfully demonstrate the ability to quickly and accurately estimate target position, velocity, and acceleration without the need for using multiple SAR images. Target motion in the range direction is detected without using any part of the RDA, while the azimuth direction cuts out several steps, including the range compression phase and the range cell migration correction. Removing these unneeded processing steps dramatically decreases target motion data acquisition time. Both Brian Zaharri’s and David So’s work, along with this thesis, are part of the Cal Poly SAR Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) group of projects, which is sponsored by Raytheon Space & Airborne Systems Division. Because U.S. military SAR data remains classified, the Cal Poly SAR ATR projects addresses the need to educate researchers on the processing of SAR data.

Book excerpt: During the 1980's, a new generation of airborne radar systems will become operational. These radars will have a number of new capabilities, but their synthetic apertures will have the greatest impact on simulation of the system since they provide a tenfold increase in resolution. Increased radar landmass simulator resolution is not the only problem implied by this increase. In particular, the sparsity of the DMA data bases presents a challenge in the generation of realistic images. Other new requirements include the simulation of anomalies caused by the Doppler mapping. For the last two years, Link has conducted an R & D program to explore the requirements of these new generation radars. This paper reports on the results. (Author).

Download or read book Geosynchronous SAR System and Signal Processing written by Teng Long and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-04-20 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book chiefly addresses the analysis and design of geosynchronous synthetic aperture radar (GEO SAR) systems, focusing on the algorithms, analysis, methods used to compensate for ionospheric influences, and validation experiments for Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS). Further, it investigates special problems in the GEO SAR context, such as curved trajectories, the Earth’s rotation, the ‘non-stop-and-go’ model, high-order Doppler parameters, temporal-variant ionospheric errors etc. These studies can also be extended to SAR with very high resolution and long integration time. Given the breadth and depth of its coverage, scientists and engineers in SAR and advanced graduate students in related areas will greatly benefit from this book.

Download or read book Rapid Prototyping of Application Specific Signal Processors written by Mark A. Richards and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1997-02-28 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rapid Prototyping of Application Specific Signal Processors presents leading-edge research that focuses on design methodology, infrastructure support and scalable architectures developed by the 150 million dollar DARPA United States Department of Defense RASSP Program. The contributions to this edited work include an introductory overview chapter that explains the origin, concepts and status of this effort. The RASSP Program is a multi-year DARPA/Tri-Service initiative intended to dramatically improve the process by which complex digital systems, particularly embedded signal processors, are designed, manufactured, upgraded and supported. This program was originally driven by military applications for signal processing. The requirements of military applications for real-time signal processing are typically more demanding than those of commercial applications, but the time gap between technology employed in advanced military prototypes and commercial products is narrowing rapidly. The research on methodologies, infrastructure and architectures presented in this book is applicable to commercial signal processing systems that are in design now, or will be developed before the end of the decade. Rapid Prototyping of Application Specific Signal Processors is a valuable reference for developers of embedded digital systems, particularly systems engineers for signal processing systems (such as digital TV, biomedical image processing systems and telecommunications) and for military contractors who are developing signal processing systems. This book will also be of interest to managers who are charged with responsibility for creating and maintaining environments and infrastructures for developing large embedded digital systems. The chief value for managers will be the defining of methods and processes that reduce development time and cost.
