DOWNLOAD EBOOKIncreasing information content is an important scientific problem in modern observation systems development. Radar, or microwave, imaging can be used for this purpose. The book provides an overview of the field and explains why a unified approach based on wave field processing techniques, including holographic and tomographic approaches, is necessary in high resolution radar design. It contains discussion of new areas in imaging radar theory, holographic radar, the questions of estimation and improving radar image quality, and finally various practical applications.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKRadar is a legal necessity for the safe navigation of merchant ships, and within vessel traffic services is indispensable to the operation of major ports and harbours. Target Detection by Marine Radar concentrates solely on civil marine operations and explains how marine surveillance radars detect their targets. The book is fully illustrated and contains worked examples to help the reader understand the principles underlying radar operation and to quantify the importance of factors such as the technical features of specific equipment, the weather, target reflection properties, and the ability of the operator. The precision with which targets are positioned on the radar screen and with which their progress is tracked or predicted depends on how definitely they have been detected, therefore a whole chapter has been devoted to the issue of accuracy. The various international regulations governing marine radar are examined, a brief historical background is given to modern day practice and the book doses with a discussion of the ways in which marine radar may develop to meet future challenges.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book text provides an overview of the radar target recognition process and covers the key techniques being developed for operational systems. It is based on the fundamental scientific principles of high resolution radar, and explains how the underlying techniques can be used in real systems, taking into account the characteristics of practical radar system designs and component limitations. It also addresses operational aspects, such as how high resolution modes would fit in with other functions such as detection and tracking.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFast response transistors for ultrawideband (UWB) radar systems and faster computers have prompted novel approaches to theoretical descriptions of such signal systems and solutions to conventional radar problems. According to Astanin (Baltic Technical U., St. Petersburg) and Kostylev (Mozhaisky Military Academy of Space Engineering), UWB has entered a third wave of research interest this decade: the first being tracking of a radar target, and the next, steady oscillation transmission. After introducing definitional, modeling, and measurement issues, they probe target scattering, target responses, UWB signal processing, and design principles and mathematical modeling of UWB radar meters.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis 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.
