Since the invention of radar, each succeeding system solution has been challenged with increasing performance demands. For the last decade, added attention has been focused on lowering the life cycle cost. Sometimes new technologies and/or approaches introduce problems of their own. RADARCON presents aspects of radar technology, applications, and signal/data processing.
Chaos is a deterministic random phenomenon. Many signal processes (e.g., radar and sonar) have a random appearance, and chaos provides an alternative approach to processing these signals. This book presents up-to-date research results on chaotic signal processing, including the application of nonlinear dynamics to radar target recognition, an exactly solvable chaos approach for communications, a chaotic approach for reconfigurable computing, system identification using chaos, design of a high resolution LADAR system based on chaos, and the use of chaos in compressive sensing.
This text discusses various applications of space-time adaptive processing, including applications in OTH-radar, ground target tracking, STAP in real world clutter environments, jammer cancellation, superresolution, active sonar, seismics and communications. It is divided into two parts: the first dealing with the classical adaptive suppression of airborne and spacebased radar clutter, and the second comprising of miscellaneous applications in other fields such as communications, underwater sound and seismics.
The Norbert Wiener Center for Harmonic Analysis and Applications provides a state-of-the-art research venue for the broad emerging area of mathematical engineering in the context of harmonic analysis. This two-volume set consists of contributions from speakers at the February Fourier Talks (FFT) from 2006-2011. The FFT are organized by the Norbert Wiener Center in the Department of Mathematics at the University of Maryland, College Park. These volumes span a large spectrum of harmonic analysis and its applications. They are divided into the following parts: Volume I · Sampling Theory · Remote Sensing · Mathematics of Data Processing · Applications of Data Processing Volume II · Measure Theory · Filtering · Operator Theory · Biomathematics Each part provides state-of-the-art results, with contributions from an impressive array of mathematicians, engineers, and scientists in academia, industry, and government. Excursions in Harmonic Analysis: The February Fourier Talks at the Norbert Wiener Center is an excellent reference for graduate students, researchers, and professionals in pure and applied mathematics, engineering, and physics.
