Ultra-wideband Radar Technology
Author: James D. Taylor
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 131766308X
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 442
Book Description
In 1995, James D. Taylor's Introduction to Ultra-Wideband Radar Systems introduced engineers to the theory behind a promising new concept for remote sensing. Since then, the field has undergone enormous growth with new applications realized and more applications conceptualized at a remarkable pace. However, understanding ultra-wideband (UWB) radar requires a new philosophical approach. Concepts such as radar cross section will have new meanings as range resolution becomes smaller than the target. Ultra-Wideband Radar Technology is a guide to the future of radar by an international team of experts. They present the problems, solutions, and examples of UWB radar remote sensing. Chapters discuss the theory and ideas for future systems development, and show the potential capabilities. The writers present concepts such as the differences between UWB and conventional radars, improving over-resolved target detection, receivers and waveforms, micropower systems, high power switching, and bistatic radar polarimetry. Finding comparable information elsewhere might require consulting hundreds of other books, technical journals, and symposium proceedings. Ultra-Wideband Radar Technology offers a unique opportunity to explore the theory, applications, and technology of UWB radar within a single source.

Meter-Wave Synthetic Aperture Radar for Concealed Object Detection
Author: Hans Hellsten
Publisher: Artech House
ISBN: 1630814466
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 367
Book Description
This unique resource presents the principles of meter wave ground imaging radar focusing on foliage penetration. Scattering of VHF/UHF radar signals are presented including the basic laws of electromagnetism, homogeneous media, media discontinuities/non-flat media discontinuities, and ground reflectivity. The book introduces meter wavelength synthetic aperture radar, bandwidth, and SAR imaging principles, including moving objects and also compares collected SAR data. Meter wavelength SAR system design and processing is explored, highlighting low frequency SAR design aspects, characterization of additive noise, antenna system basics, waveforms and emission adaptation which is critical material to the advancement in sensors and signal processing for below ground imaging by the energy industry and governments worldwide. The FFBP method of processing, explicit treatment of base 2 FFBP is explained along with motion errors sensitivity and motion estimation methods. The book also explains the Bayesian change detection, covariance moving target extraction and polarimetric subsurface imaging.
