Book excerpt: Monostatic airborne radars have a problem detecting low and slow flying airborne targets or slow moving ground targets because of the severe ground clutter. Space Time Adaptive Processing (STAP) algorithms have been found to be effective in suppressing the ground clutter and revealing the targets of interest. Newer surveillance systems, both airborne and space based, are likely to be bistatic, i.e., the transmitter and the receiver are to be housed in separate vehicles. Specifically, the transmitter is to be housed in an AWACS type aircraft or a satellite and the receiver will probably be housed in a UAV. In either case, one is faced with the problem of the same ground clutter as in the monostatic case and thus there is need for bistatic clutter suppression algorithms. In 1995-1996, Air Force Research laboratory, Rome Research Site (AFRL-RRS, formerly Rome Laboratory), collected a large amount of multichannel, airborne radar measurement (MCARM) data, to help verify the efficacy of STAP in both monostatic and bistatic scenarios and if necessary, to develop newer algorithms for the bistatic case. This report documents the efforts by this author to apply and compare the application of STAP algorithms to several acquisitions from both monostatic and bistatic MCARM flights.

Book excerpt: The Multi-Channel Airborne Radar Measurement (MCARM) program was initiated to gather real airborne data. Both monostatic and bistatic data were collected, under varying environmental conditions and in different geographical areas. This report documents the construction, maintenance, and use of the MCARM data via the Internet. The main objective of this access is to permit and promote research in the area of Space-Time Adaptive Processing. Use of real airborne data will permit researchers to better test different signal processing algorithms and hypotheses. A query form and query engine permits a user to search the data repository. The data repository is comprised of 570 data files and occupies approximately 27 gigabytes of magnetic disk storage.

Book excerpt: The purpose of this report is to assess the quality of the Multi-Channel Airborne Radar Measurements (MCARM) airborne data collected, evaluate several reduced rank Space-Time Adaptive Processing (STAP) algorithms, and provide guidance to researchers. The goal of MCARM is the development of STAP algorithms for enhanced target detection in severe environments through the use of real world multi-channel airborne data. The Rome Laboratory's MCARM program provides real data, monostatic and bistatic, for performance evaluation of existing and future STAP approaches. This report evaluates the performance of several state of the art STAP algorithms using monostatic MCARM data. The algorithm list includes Factored Time Space (FTS), Extended FTS Approach (EFA), Cross Spectral Metric (CSM), Joint Domain Localized (JDL), Principal Components, Parametric Adaptive Matched Filter (PAMP), and others. As expected, adaptive processing results in significant detection performance improvements over conventional beamforming techniques. N single algorithm can be deemed "best" as several factors affect performance. Two primary factors are the sample support requirement for interference estimation and computational complexity. A significant finding from the work is the non-homogeneous nature of the clutter returns. This nature violates the assumption of independent, identically distributed data for interference estimation illustrating the need for Non-Homogeneity Detectors (NHDs). NHDs offer improved detection and false alarm performance through better selection of secondary data.

Download or read book Radar Detection written by Julius V. DiFranco and published by IET. This book was released on 2004-06-30 with total page 673 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a comprehensive tutorial exposition of radar detection using the methods and techniques of mathematical statistics. The material presented is as current and useful to today's engineers as when the book was first published by Prentice-Hall in 1968 and then republished by Artech House in 1980. The book is divided into six parts. Part I is introductory and describes the nature of the radar detection problem. Part II reviews the mathematical tools necessary for a study of detection theory. Part III contains tutorial expositions in a radar context of the classical signal-to-noise and a posteriori theories, both of which have played important roles in the evolution of modern radar. The unifying theme of the book is provided by statistical decision theory, introduced in the last chapter of Part III, which provides the framework for the chapters that follow. The first three chapters of Part IV contain a unified tutorial exposition of single and multiple hit detection theory. The last two chapters are respectively devoted to the use of the radar equation and a discussion of cumulative detection probability. The latter includes a procedure for minimizing the power-aperture product of a search radar. The performance of near-optimum multiple hit detection strategies are considered in Part V. These include binary and pulse train detection strategies. The first chapter in Part VI applies sequential detection theory to the radar detection problem. It includes the Marcus and Swerling test strategy and a two-step approximation to sequential detection. The second chapter contains the development of Bayes decision rules and Bayes receivers for optimizing the detection of multiple targets with unknown parameters, such as range, velocity, angle, etc.

Download or read book Handbook of Radar Signal Analysis written by Bassem R. Mahafza and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-08-30 with total page 746 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new handbook on radar signal analysis adopts a deliberate and systematic approach. It uses a clear and consistent level of delivery while maintaining strong and easy-to-follow mathematical details. The emphasis of this book is on radar signal types and their relevant signal processing and not on radar systems hardware or components. This handbook serves as a valuable reference to a wide range of audience. More specifically, college-level students, practicing radar engineers, as well as casual readers of the subject are the intended target audience of the first few chapters of this book. As the book chapters progress, these grow in complexity and specificity. Accordingly, later chapters are intended for practicing engineers, graduate college students, and advanced readers. Finally, the last few chapters contain several special topics on radar systems that are both educational and scientifically entertaining to all readers. The presentation of topics in this handbook takes the reader on a scientific journey whose major landmarks comprise the different radar subsystems and components. In this context, the chapters follow the radar signal along this journey from its birth to the end of its life. Along the way, the different relevant radar subsystems are analyzed and discussed in great detail. The chapter contributors of this new handbook comprise experienced academia members and practicing radar engineers. Their combined years of academic and real-world experiences are in excess of 175. Together, they bring a unique, easy-to-follow mix of mathematical and practical presentations of the topics discussed in this book. See the "Chapter Contributors" section to learn more about these individuals.
