Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pace (Naval Postgraduate School) presents the principles of radar design that enable a low probability of intercept (LPI) by a noncooperative intercept receiver. The RF system uses complex pulse compression CW waveforms, low side lobe antennas, and power management techniques to render itself virtually undetectable. The second part of the textbook investigates three algorithms for providing the intercept receiver with a processing gain that is close to the radar's matched filter processing gain, and quantifies their performance with LPI waveforms. The CD-ROM contains MATLAB code for evaluating the complex LPI radar-receiver interactions. Annotation : 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).

Taboada and published by . This book was released on 2002-09 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Low probability of intercept (LPI) is that property of an emitter that because of its low power, wide bandwidth, frequency variability, or other design attributes, makes it difficult to be detected or identified by means of passive intercept devices such as radar warning, electronic support and electronic intelligence receivers, In order to detect LPI radar waveforms new signal processing techniques are required This thesis first develops a MATLAB toolbox to generate important types of LPI waveforms based on frequency and phase modulation The power spectral density and the periodic ambiguity function are examined for each waveforms These signals are then used to test a novel signal processing technique that detects the waveforms parameters and classifies the intercepted signal in various degrees of noise, The technique is based on the use of parallel filter (sub-band) arrays and higher order statistics (third- order cumulant estimator) Each sub-band signal is treated individually and is followed by the third-order estimator in order to suppress any symmetrical noise that might be present, The significance of this technique is that it separates the LPI waveforms in small frequency bands, providing a detailed time-frequency description of the unknown signal, Finally, the resulting output matrix is processed by a feature extraction routine to detect the waveforms parameters Identification of the signal is based on the modulation parameters detected,

This book was released on 2002-09-01 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LPI radar is a class of radar systems that possess certain performance characteristics that make them nearly undetectable by today's digital intercept receivers, This presents a significant tactical problem in the battle space To detect these types of radar, new digital receivers that use sophisticated signal processing techniques are required This thesis investigates the use of cyclostationary processing to extract the modulation parameters from a variety of continuous-wave (CW) low-probability-of- intercept (LPI) radar waveforms, The cyclostationary detection techniques described exploit the fact that digital signals vary in time with single or multiple periodicities, because they have spectral correlation, namely, non-zero correlation between certain frequency components, at certain frequency shifts, The use of cyclostationary signal processing in a non-cooperative intercept receiver can help identify the particular emitter and can help develop electronic attacks, LPI CW waveforms examined include Frank codes, polyphase codes (Pt through P4), Frequency Modulated CW (FMCW), Costas frequencies as well as several frequency-shift- keying/phase-shift-keying (FSK/PSK) waveforms It is shown that for signal-to- noise ratios of OdB and -6 dB, the cyclostationary signal processing can extract the modulation parameters necessary in order to distinguish among the various types of LPI modulations.
Download or read book Classification and Analysis of Low Probability of Intercept Radar Signals Using Image Processing written by Christer Persson and published by . This book was released on 2003-09-01 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The characteristic of low probability of intercept (LPI) radar makes it difficult to intercept with conventional signal intelligence methods so new interception methods need to be developed. This thesis initially describes a simulation of a polytime phase-coded LPI signal. The thesis then introduces a method for classification of LPI radar signals. The method utilizes a parallel tree structure with three separate 'branches' to exploit the image representation formed by three separate detection methods. Each detection method output is pre-processed and features are extracted using image processing. After processing the images, they are each fed into three separate neural networks to be classified. The classification output of each neural network is then combined and fed into a fourth neural network performing the final classification. The outcome of testing shows only 53%, which might be the result of the image representation of the detection methods not being distinct enough, the pre - processing/feature extraction not being able to extract relevant information or the neural networks not being properly trained. The thesis concludes with a brief discussion about a suitable method for image processing to extract significant parameters from a LPI signal.

Download or read book Man Machine Environment System Engineering written by Shengzhao Long and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-09-24 with total page 727 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These proceedings showcase the best papers selected from more than 500 submissions, and introduce readers to the hottest research topics and the latest developmental trends in the theory and application of MMESE. The integrated and advanced science research topic Man-Machine-Environment System Engineering (MMESE) was first established in China by Professor Shengzhao Long in 1981, with direct support from one of the greatest modern Chinese scientists, Xuesen Qian. In a letter to Long from October 22nd, 1993, Qian wrote: “You have created a very important modern science and technology in China!” MMESE primarily focuses on the relationship between Man, Machine and Environment, studying the optimum combination of man-machine-environment systems. In this system, “Man” refers to working people as the subject in the workplace (e.g. operators, decision-makers); “Machine” is the general name for any object controlled by Man (including tools, machinery, computers, systems and technologies), and “Environment” describes the specific working conditions under which Man and Machine interact (e.g. temperature, noise, vibration, hazardous gases etc.). The three main goals of optimizing man-machine-environment systems are to ensure safety, efficiency and economy. These proceedings present interdisciplinary studies on essential concepts and methods from physiology, psychology, system engineering, computer science, environmental science, management, education, and other related disciplines. As such, they offer a valuable resource for all researchers and professionals whose work involves interdisciplinary areas touching on MMESE subjects.

This book was released on 2002-09-01 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Low Probability of Intercept (LPI) radars are a class of radar systems that possess certain performance% characteristics causing them to be nearly undetectable by most modern digital intercept receivers, Consequently, LPI radar systems can operate undetected until the intercept receiver is much closer than the radar's target detector, The enemy is thus faced with a significant problem To detect these types of radar, new direct digital receivers that use sophisticated signal processing are required, This thesis describes a novel signal processing architecture, and shows simulation results for a number of LPI waveforms. The LPI signal detection receiver is based on Quadrature Minor Filter Bank (QMFB) Tree processing and orthogonal wavelet techniques to decompose the input waveform into components representing the signal energy in rectangular "tiles" in the time-frequency plane, By analyzing the outputs at different layers of the tree it is possible to do feature extraction, identify and classify the LPI waveform parameters, and distinguish among the various LPI signal modulations Waveforms used as input signals to the detection algorithm include Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave, Polyphase Codes, Costas Codes and Frequency Shift Keying/Phase Shift Keying waveforms. The output matrices resulting from the most relevant layers of the QMFB tree processing are examined and the LPI modulation parameters are extracted under various signal-to-noise ratios,
