This handbook is designed to aid electronic warfare and radar systems engineers in making general estimations regarding capabilities of systems. This handbook is sponsored by the NAVAIR Director of Electronic Warfare / Combat Systems Department.

This book provides an advanced introduction to inertial data processing along with design architectures and algorithms used to aid inertial navigation systems. The emphasis is on the high-end sensors and systems used in aerospace applications, but material is also included that provides an overview of low-cost sensor data processing.

This comprehensive introduction to synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is a practical guide to the analysis, simulation, and design of SAR systems. The video eBook uses constructive examples and real-world collected datasets to demonstrate image registration and autofocus methods. Both two- and three-dimensional image formation algorithms are presented. Hardware, software, and environmental parameters are used to estimate performance limits for SAR operation and utilization. A set of Python and MATLAB software tools is included and provides you with an effective mechanism to analyze and predict SAR performance for various imaging scenarios and applications. Examples which use the software tools are provided at the end of each chapter to reinforce critical SAR imaging topics such as clutter-to-noise ratio, mapping rate, spatial resolution, Doppler bandwidth, pulse repetition frequency, and coherency. This is an excellent resource for engineering professionals working in areas of radar signal processing and imaging as well as students interested in studying SAR.

This book provides an overview of some advanced techniques and technologies developed for polarimetric radars. It covers how the systems are designed to meet challenging performance requirements and also covers some of the most challenging application fields.

This book takes the reader through the development of a Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) system, stressing the parameters that can be optimized and explaining the theory behind the GPR assessment. The authors provide a detailed discussion of the support tools and the numerical modeling of the system to improve readings from GPR systems.

Radar technology allows for touchless wireless gesture sensing by transmitting radio frequency (RF) signals to the target, accurately detecting gestures for Human Computer Interaction (HCI). Led by researchers from Google's Project Soli, the authors introduce the concept and underpinning technology.

This book outlines the potential for microwave photonics in radar and electronic warfare systems, covering basic concepts and functions, comparing performance with conventional systems, describing its impact on digital signal processing, and exploring integration issues.

This book addresses the growing conflict over use of the radio-frequency spectrum by different systems, such as civil and security applications of radar and consumer use for wireless communications. The increasing demand for this finite resource is driving innovation into new ways in which these diverse systems can cohabit the spectrum.

In today's world, the range of technologies with the potential to threaten the security of U.S. military forces is extremely broad. These include developments in explosive materials, sensors, control systems, robotics, satellite systems, and computing power, to name just a few. Such technologies have not only enhanced the capabilities of U.S. military forces, but also offer enhanced offensive capabilities to potential adversaries - either directly through the development of more sophisticated weapons, or more indirectly through opportunities for interrupting the function of defensive U.S. military systems. Passive and active electro-optical (EO) sensing technologies are prime examples. Laser Radar considers the potential of active EO technologies to create surprise; i.e., systems that use a source of visible or infrared light to interrogate a target in combination with sensitive detectors and processors to analyze the returned light. The addition of an interrogating light source to the system adds rich new phenomenologies that enable new capabilities to be explored. This report evaluates the fundamental, physical limits to active EO sensor technologies with potential military utility; identifies key technologies that may help overcome the impediments within a 5-10 year timeframe; considers the pros and cons of implementing each existing or emerging technology; and evaluates the potential uses of active EO sensing technologies, including 3D mapping and multi-discriminate laser radar technologies.

This book provides an up-to-date account of the status of research and implementation of automotive radars. The book covers fundamental, novel and essential technologies, such as MIMO, waveform design, and interference mitigation. The book includes chapters on exterior and interior uses of radar technology.

Principles of Modern Radar: Basic Principles is a comprehensive text for courses in radar systems and technology, a professional training textbook for formal in-house courses and for new hires; a reference for ongoing study following a radar short course and a self-study and professional reference book.

The book sets out to explain the basic principles of radar and, where applicable, historical aspects of the evolution of these principles are dealt with. The study, while underlining the significance of the cavity magnetron, purposely restricts itself to the pre-cavity magnetron era of radar.

This book presents comprehensive coverage of new research into sea clutter characterisation and modelling, radar performance prediction and maritime target detection. The book also includes a summary of sea-clutter scattering characteristics and datasets provided that can be used for modelling.

The book provides a systematic introduction to the principles, state-of-the-art methods and applications of high frequency surface/sky wave radar and microwave marine radar, as well as an exploration of ongoing challenges in the field. It is a valuable resource for the radar and remote sensing communities.

Radar signals are one of the most challenging signals to process, because of the extreme signal to noise ratio and the dynamic range of the signals. This book gives readers an analysis of the various tools available to help better understand radar data, including coverage of new machine learning and statistical methods.

This is the only book focused on the complete aspects of RF Stealth design. It is the first book to present and explain first order methods for the design of active and passive stealth properties. Everything from Electronic Order of Battle to key component design is covered.
