In this study, we intended to verify simulations and measured data to support the development of an ultra-small and low-power, handheld, or drone-carried ultra-wideband impulse radar (IR). Such a radar can remotely detect layers in snow or ice that tend to crack or break under certain conditions. First, we introduce the basic hardware design and configuration as a background, then we developed a series of electromagnetics sensing models, which can support training and testing of an algorithm based on machine-learning (ML), since the time-domain radar signatures of those hazardous structures are not widely available. We compared the principles and performance of these computational models and validated them with lab measurements and some initial snow measurements.

There is growing research interest to merge the idea of a metacognitive radar with that of a tracking radar. The concept of metacognition can be broadly summarized as the process of learning about learning. In a metacognitive tracking radar, the system uses cognitive processes to detect and track a target in a dynamic environment. The radar then applies metacognitive techniques to select the cognitive process that yields the most accurate target track. In the context of target tracking, cognitive processes are various tracking algorithms. Currently, metacognitive tracking radar systems have only been demonstrated on targets of known trajectories. Their performance in the case of a randomly maneuvering target has not been explored. This paper presents an initial approach to this problem. First, an algorithm to generate random target trajectories is presented. Then, these trajectories are estimated using two estimation algorithms: the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) and the Interacting Multiple Model (IMM) estimator. Finally, the performances of these two algorithms are compared.

This paper examines the disturbances (spoofing and interferences) in a multi-radar environment. Analysis of these disturbances in linear frequency modulated (LFM) and random frequency-hopped LFM (RFHLFM) radar shows that the RFHLFM radar has better output performance compared to conventional LFM radar in terms of accuracy, SNR and range resolution, in the presence of multiple interference signals. Both radar systems operate in the K-band (18 - 27GHz) frequency range.

With recent active research related to autonomous driving, object tracking technology using autonomous driving sensors such as LiDAR and radar has also undergone extensive development. Accordingly, attempts are being made to apply autonomous sensors not only on autonomous vehicles but also in various fields such as security and surveillance. However, since security and surveillance systems should be able to detect and track objects even under extreme environmental conditions such as snow, rain, and fog during the day or night, radar systems that meet the relevant requirements are essential. In South Korea, the distance of the Military Demarcation Line (MDL) is 250 km, and a considerable investment would be required to install more than 1,000 radars and PCs with built-in GPUs in all sections for a border security and surveillance system. Therefore, in this study, a Kalman filter-based object tracking system is explored rather than applying deep learning, which requires GPU processing. Additionally, most objects along the MDL are highly likely to be suspicious objects, so a radarsensor is most suitable because it provides coordinates, distance, and speed of movement without needlessly determining whether an object is an enemy or not. For accurate object detection and tracking performance, two motion models for the Kalman filter, a constant acceleration model (CAM) and a constant turn rate and acceleration model (CTRAM), are compared to identify a suitable model for each object movement state.
Due to limitations in clock synchronization technology and sensor non-ideal clocks, achieving accurate clock synchronization for distributed multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar systems is not feasible. This pa...

Wirelessly coordinated distributed phased arrays show promise for a variety of communication and sensing applications. However, phase-coherent operation of distributed systems requires precise localization of the transmitting nodes in the array, which presents a challenge for internode links operating at microwave frequencies. Previous works have been dedicated to centralized localization schemes, but these systems are vulnerable to single-point failures under a variety of conditions. In this work, we demonstrate a decentralized approach to network localization using a spectrally-sparse and narrow-band two-tone waveform for range estimation and multidimensional scaling for network realization. We implement the approach using a six-node network of software-defined radios (SDRs) and demonstrate that the system obtains a mean localization error of 1.9 cm, supporting distributed beamforming at frequencies of more than 1 GHz.
