Target tracking has become more complicated as radar operating environments have become increasingly congested with clutter, interference, and countermeasures for jamming of radio frequency (RF) signals. As a result, the accuracy and performance of target tracking radars are further degraded. Three configurations of radar systems, namely, monostatic radar, bistatic radar, and passive radar, are commonly used today. The most conventional one is the monostatic radar defined by a co-located transmitter and receiver. In the bistatic radar system, the radar transmitter and receiver are physically separated by a large distance. A passive radar system is a derivative of the bistatic radar system, wherein radar functions are performed without the use of one's own transmitter. Instead, existing signals-of-opportunity (SOP) within the RF environment are opportunistically exploited to perform the radar functions. This paper presents a concept based on metacognition which entails dynamically switching the mode of operation between the three radar configurations to optimize target tracking accuracy. The paper provides an overview of the three radar configurations followed by the description of an approach for switching radar configuration among the three radars. Modeling and simulation of a passive radar system for target tracking in MATLAB is presented and followed by analysis and discussion of its performance.
The paper summarizes the research, development, and first trials of a new compact synthetic aperture radar (SAR) system dedicated to unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and light planes. The SAR sensor operates in the X-b...

Modern approaches to quantum radar implementation utilize the intrinsic correlations of two-mode squeezed vacuum photon pairs emerging from a nonlinear interaction. The most popular approach has been the use of delay lines for the idler and performing joint measurements on the idler and returning signal together. In this paper, it is argued and shown that this sort of implementation is not necessary to extract the quantum cross correlation terms. Immediate detection of the idler and later cross correlation on a large enough data set will yield identical covariance terms. Moreover, immediate idler detection facilitates the use of conventional radar signal processing which allows existing waveform toolboxes of classical radar to be utilized for quantum radar. This allows a much more relaxed set of constraints on the implementation of quantum radar techniques. This paper discusses these concepts, including new detection techniques from the author, and validates the framework with some preliminary experimental data. The presented data, as well as the recent work of others allows for the possibility of a much larger quantum advantage than previously thought, particularly when comparing to real-world practical classical sensors.

A wideband metasurface with about 180 degrees +/- 37 degrees reflection phase difference with grounded dielectric substrate is designed in this paper. The metasurface is used to reduce the radar cross section (RCS) of the dipole array based on the phase cancellation. The scanning performance and monostatic RCS of the array are studied. In the normal direction, at least 6dB RCS reduction from 8.5 to 26GHz is realized and the gain loss is smaller than 1dB in the radiation band. The design efficiency is improved by the introduction of the artificial neural network (ANN) model. The parameter selection method and Fourier-series based transfer function are utilized to reduce the dimensions of the input and output of the ANN model, respectively.

Multimodal sensor fusion has been successfully utilized in many odometry and localization methods as it increases both estimate accuracy and robustness in application scenarios. To address the challenge of odometry under varying-weather conditions, we propose a novel visual 4D radar fusion based odometry in an unsupervised deep learning approach. In our method, we adopt transformer-based cascaded decoders to facilitate efficient feature extraction of images and radar point clouds. Considering that radars are weather-agnostic and information-rich cameras are susceptible to adverse weathers, we deliberately introduce an adaptive attention-based feature fusion mechanism, in which the attention shifts dynamically to adapt to changing weather conditions based on the amount of information content in image features. Through extensive comparative experiments, our method surpasses different state-of-the-art single-modal odometry estimation methods. Our code and trained model will be released publicly.
