Book Radar Target Detection

Download or read book Radar Target Detection written by Daniel Meyers and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Radar Target Detection: Handbook of Theory and Practice covers a set of graphical solutions to the detection problem, designated as Meyer Plots, for radar systems design. A radar system's major purpose is the detection and location of an object by means of a return signal, which could be either a reflection or a beacon. This book is composed of four chapters. Chapter 1 presents the basic radar range equation, which is the basic relationship which permits the calculation of echo signal strength from measurable or known parameters of the radar transmitter, antenna, propagation path, and target. Chapter 2 provides examples for determining statistical signal detection using Meyer Plots, particularly for determining detection probability and integration loss and efficiency. Chapter 3 describes the application of target models to determination of detection probability. Chapter 4 examines how Meyer Plots can be used to solve problems involving most any target model.

Book Handbook of Radar Signal Analysis

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.

Book Pulsed Radar Target Recognition Based on Micro doppler Signatures Using Wavelet Analysis

Download or read book Pulsed Radar Target Recognition Based on Micro doppler Signatures Using Wavelet Analysis written by Vinit Kizhakkel and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Radar based automatic target recognition systems are commonly used in perimeter protection and surveillance applications. These systems determine the nature of a target moving in the radar's field of view using its echo signal. Such an echo signal contains the target's micro-Doppler ([mu]-D) signature as well as its macro-motion related parameters. This thesis presents and compares three different approaches to develop such a system to distinguish between humans, dogs and background clutter using a low power pulsed radar. Each of these approaches rely on one among three different joint time-frequency transforms such as the short-time Fourier transform, the wavelet packet transform and the Haar transform to extract key [mu]-D signature related features from the time-frequency plane representation of the echo signal. These [mu]-D signature based features are combined with relative range profile based ones that characterize the detected target's motion at a gross level. These features, extracted from a variety of field data, are used to train and test different classifiers that finally declare the type of the target. The comparative performances of these three methods have been discussed. The Haar transform based approach, in particular, seems to show promise for implementation on computationally constrained platforms like motes used in wireless sensor network applications.

Book Identification of Radar Targets by Pattern Recognition

Download or read book Identification of Radar Targets by Pattern Recognition written by William Bernard Goggins and published by . This book was released on 1973 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problem of identifying radar targets without predetermined knowledge or measurements of their aspect angle is examined. The proposed solution is to use radar magnitude and phase versus frequency data in the resonance region as input data for pattern recognition techniques. Practical methods are developed for measuring radar phase and dealing with polarization effects. Pattern recognition algorithms that optimize separation between pairs of input data are developed. These algorithms are based on digital spatial frequency filtering of curves of the radar return versus the radar frequency. The technique is simulated on a digital computer for three objects - a cylinder, a cone, and a step cylinder - all of about the same size. Results show that at most aspect angles, satisfactory recognition is attained at moderate signal-to-noise ratios.

Book Signal Denoising Techniques for Radar Target Detection

Download or read book Signal Denoising Techniques for Radar Target Detection written by Jami Venkata Suman and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2020-05-08 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Radar is an acronym for Radio Detection and Ranging. An object detection system that transmits electromagnetic waves and analyses the echoes coming from the objects. Radar can operate in any weather conditions (e.g. darkness, fog, rain). Radar can perform its function at short and long ranges. Radar can provide measurements in high accuracy. Radar signal processing can be defined as the manipulation of the received signal, represented in digital format, to extract the desired information whilst rejecting unwanted signals. In particular, a surveillance radar takes a decision about the presence or absence of targets whilst cancelling radar echoes caused by ground clutter, radio frequency interference and noise source.
