Two current hurdles of quantum radar/LiDAR technology are i.) The use of joint measurement techniques, whereby the idler remains in a delay line or a quantum memory to be measured later with the returning signal, and ii.) The difficulty in creating high photon flux signals for long range sensing. Our measurement and detection protocol using immediate-idler-detection (IID) helps to alleviate both of these issues. We present our recent experimental data from characterizing our proof-of-concept IID quantum LiDAR system and show that similar to delay line approaches, we achieve strong correlation even in extremely noisy channels where the noise level exceeds the signal strength by as much as one hundred times. We have found that even in very lossy channels, the integration time remains extremely short and roughly the same value even as the noise is increased. We also show preliminary results through foggy free space channels and found positive correlation SNR even when the visibility was as low as 15%. Our measurement and detection protocol was designed to align closely with classical radar and LiDAR signal processing to better align the quantum and classical sensor regimes and allows for the potential to scale upwards and produce higher photon-flux signals from multiple photon pair sources.

This work proposes a novel wideband absorber for radar cross section (RCS) reduction. The absorber achieves wideband absorption under the action of a resistor-loaded double metal layer. Simulation results show that the proposed absorber has a 10 dB RCS reduction in the 5.46-16.79 GHz bandwidth with a fractional bandwidth of 101.84% under normal incidence. The RCS reduction performance of the absorber under TE and TM polarization at oblique incidence is also analyzed. The absorber achieves wideband RCS reduction with a simple structure and low processing and assembly costs, and thus has the potential to be suitable for future stealth applications.

Based on physical optics (PO) algorithm and BUMBLEBEE electromagnetic simulation software, a high-frequency asymptotic solver is developed in this paper. Combined with practical application, the developed solver supports PEC material and PEC surface coating material and supports simulation calculation of monostatic, bistatic, and inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR). In terms of algorithm, the influence of multiple occlusion on triangular element classification is considered, and the Ludwig algorithm is used to discretize the scattering field of a single illuminated surface element, which improves the simulation accuracy. The reliability of the high-frequency asymptotic solver is verified by three numerical examples.

In this paper, a double threshold constant false alarm detection method based on estimated scattering point information is proposed to solve the problem of range spread target detection under unknown scattering point information. First, the k-nearest neighbor classification (KNN) algorithm is used to classify the area to be detected and calculate the first threshold. Then the second threshold is calculated based on the constant false alarm rate, and the second thresholds are used to determine whether the target is present. The simulation results show that this method uses echo information to estimate target scattering points to solve the problem of range spread target detection without any priori information, and has high detection accuracy and robustness.

In this paper, an oval-shaped aperture ridge waveguide phased array antenna at millimeter wave (MMW) band is proposed for phased array radar applications. First, the ridge waveguide antenna and the feeding power divider are developed. secondly, a prototype of proposed antenna system is fabricated and measured. The experimental results indicate that the proposed phased array antenna achieves a wide bandwidth of 2GHz at MMW band and a coverage of +/- 40 degrees beam scanning. Furthermore, sidelobes level of the receiving beams are below -22.9dB and -25.2dB in azimuth axis and elevation axis respectively.

With the continuous development of sensortechnology and electronic information technology, data fusion technology is of great significance in improving the system's ability of detecting, recognizing and tracking targets. That is, a single sensor can only provide partially imprecise information, thus not excluding ambiguity in the description of the external environment. Given the complementarity exhibited by the differences in the performance of the sensors, synthesizing the information from individual sensors results in more accurate and reliable information than a single sensor can provide. A multi-sensor fusion method based on extended Kalman is proposed to address this problem. Experimental results show that the accuracy and robustness of target detection and tracking can be significantly improved by the fusion of infrared and millimeter wave radar data.

In this paper, a microstrip patch antenna which uses polarization conversion metasurface(PCM) to achieve in-band and out-of-band radar cross section (RCS) reduction is proposed. As is shown in simulation results, the combination of the polarization conversion metasurface improves the radiation and scattering performance of the proposed antenna. The proposed PCM realizes bandwidth with PCR over 90% is 7.82 - 13.2 GHz (about 25.6% fractional bandwidth). The proposed antenna's gain at 9.55GHz increases about 1.3dBi than the reference one. Eventually, the average bandwidth of 10dB RCS reduction ranges from 7.1 to 11GHz.

In recent years, the recognition and analysis of human gaits have garnered significant interest in diverse applications such as biometrics, healthcare, and security. This paper presents a simulation study and analysis of limps of different severities and comparison with normal walking gait. Various limp gaits were simulated by adjusting some of the parameters in a well-known gait model developed for normal gait. Analysis was performed by extracting various metrics using the micro-Doppler features as well as the Hilbert-Huang model, which show differences for limping stages. It is conjectured that by combining micro-Doppler features with specific metrics derived from HHT analysis, it may be possible to detect the onset of limp gait and to assess its severity.

This work reports the potential of first-order, non-autonomous chaotic circuits for bistatic radar applications. Unlike most chaotic systems, 1st order chaotic systems offer closed-form analytic solutions that aid in designing simple matched filters. In this work, a signal generated by a 1st chaotic oscillator is transmitted toward both the receiver and the target, enabling the use of this waveform for two purposes. First, the waveform serves to synchronize the bistatic radar receiver. Second, the waveform assists in acquiring an estimate of the target's range. For the first time, we show that two 1st order chaotic circuits can be synchronized using a simple resistive coupling. The cross-correlation between the two synchronized circuits is of high quality, exhibiting a narrow main lobe width and low sidelobe levels. Consequently, these 1st order systems can generate high-range resolution profiles in bistatic configurations. Lastly, analytical expressions show that the cross-ambiguity function between the echo received from the target and synchronized waveforms yields a near thumb-tack shape, emphasizing the value of a noise-like waveform for radar-ranging applications.
