Book Description
A novel technique for detecting, locating, and tracking moving targets from an airborne radar platform is described and analyzed. The technique uses the generally dissimilar linear doppler frequency modulated signals from moving targets and stationary ground clutter. A matched filter processor is defined and its resolution and ambiguity properties studied as function processor parameters. Sub-clutter visibility of the processor is then determined. Two techniques for digitally implementing the processor are discussed and the computational efficiencies briefly analyzed. Finally, target angular position can be determined using phase monopulse. It is then shown that target velocity--both ground speed and target heading--can be determined from radar observables. (Author).

Processing for Maximum Signal-to-clutter in AMTI Radars

ISBN:
Category : Array processors
Languages : en
Pages : 48
Book Description
Phased array antennas and doppler signal processors designed to complement each other have been successfully used to maximize the signal-to-clutter (S/C) performance of AMTI radars. The optimum receiving antennas described in this paper allow for nonuniformities created in the ground-clutter doppler spectrum by the transmitting antenna and processing of the received doppler signal; the optimum signal-to-clutter digital processors allow for clutter spectra shaped by the combined effects of the transmitting-receiving antennas. The emphasis has been placed on producing antenna-processor designs that have complementary pass and reject bands. The mathematical techniques used in these designs maximize the ratio between the target signal and the clutter-plus-noise, expressed as a ratio of quadratic forms. The solution for the optimum design, which depends principally on the inversion of a single matrix rather than on any recursive technique, is obtained in closed form.

ISBN: 1420062417
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 750
Book Description
Discover the Applicability, Benefits, and Potential of New Technologies As advances in algorithms and computer technology have bolstered the digital signal processing capabilities of real-time sonar, radar, and non-invasive medical diagnostics systems, cutting-edge military and defense research has established conceptual similarities in these areas. Now civilian enterprises can use government innovations to facilitate optimal functionality of complex real-time systems. Advanced Signal Processing details a cost-efficient generic processing structure that exploits these commonalities to benefit commercial applications. Learn from a Renowned Defense Scientist, Researcher, and Innovator The author preserves the mathematical focus and key information from the first edition that provided invaluable coverage of topics including adaptive systems, advanced beamformers, and volume visualization methods in medicine. Integrating the best features of non-linear and conventional algorithms and explaining their application in PC-based architectures, this text contains new data on: Advances in biometrics, image segmentation, registration, and fusion techniques for 3D/4D ultrasound, CT, and MRI Fully digital 3D/ (4D: 3D+time) ultrasound system technology, computing architecture requirements, and relevant implementation issues State-of-the-art non-invasive medical procedures, non-destructive 3D tomography imaging and biometrics, and monitoring of vital signs Cardiac motion correction in multi-slice X-ray CT imaging Space-time adaptive processing and detection of targets interference-intense backgrounds comprised of clutter and jamming With its detailed explanation of adaptive, synthetic-aperture, and fusion-processing schemes with near-instantaneous convergence in 2-D and 3-D sensors (including planar, circular, cylindrical, and spherical arrays), the quality and illustration of this text’s concepts and techniques will make it a favored reference.
