Pulsed Doppler is a radar system that is capable of not only detecting target location, but also measuring its velocity. Moving target indication (MTI) is a mode of operation of a radar to discriminate a target against clutter. This book offers professionals a presentation of the subject.
Many communications hardware considerations and digital signal processing approaches are becoming applicable to communication receivers. This work surveys practical design techniques for receiver systems engineers, providing a description of digital processing applicable to wideband receivers.
Describes a form of radar for which the target response is frequency; that is, resonance-dependent. This book provides both prototype designs and empirical results collected from a variety of targets. It details how a target's response can be a function of frequency components in the transmitted signal's envelope as well as the signal's carrier.
This revised edition provides an introduction to the capabilities and limitations of radar, as well as a detailed advanced study of key radar signal processing topics. It explains the concepts and theory of radar signal processing such as resolution, ambiguities, antennas, and waveforms.
Covers topics such as: digital technology, automatic detection and tracking, doppler technology, airborne radar, and target recognition. This book includes end-of-chapter problems to enhance the "teachability" in the classroom, as well as for self-study for practicing engineers.
Have you ever wondered how stealth planes achieve "invisibility, how sunken ships are found, or how fishermen track schools of fish in vast expanses of ocean? Weaving history with simple science, this book reveals the world of radar and sonar. It provides explanations of the physics that make signal processing possible.
Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) spans aspects of geophysical science, technology, and a wide range of scientific and engineering applications. This book features a review of GPR theory and applications by leaders in the field. It is suitable for both experienced practitioners and novices.
Divided into two parts, this book covers the fundamentals of various antennas and concepts in the first half and then gets into details on the same topics in the second half. This format allows a one-semester course to cover the fundamentals if desired, and a professional to focus on advanced topics if he or she wants.
