As two of the main sensors utilized in robotics, environment representation and navigation, ToF cameras and radars are often combined in sensor fusion frameworks. Realistic and complete simulation plays a crucial role in fast prototyping, performance assessment, and model analysis of systems relying on these sensing technologies. Typical simulation environments, however, don't model key characteristics, such as the radarsensor's time domain raw data, antenna arrays' structure, or parasitic effects of depth estimation of ToF cameras. This article presents a simultaneous ToF camera and radar simulation based on the Unity 3D engine. The two sensors are modeled from a single custom RGB camera object and are inherently time synchronized. The simulation provides ToF depth and intensity estimates, together with time domain radardata and realistic detrimental effects, allowing testing of standard post-processing algorithms. Several parameters can be configured, such as field of view, modulation characteristics, and the number and position of antennas. Moreover, simulation objects can have different material properties for the two sensors making them more or less visible for each sensor. The approach focuses on user-friendly, realistic sensor simulation while keeping computational complexity within acceptable limits to ensure applicability. The capabilities of the proposed simulator are validated by comparing real and simulated sensors in different scenarios.

Since the distance spoofing false target generated by the reflection of the corner reflector does not satisfy the law of conservation of momentum, it can be recognized directly by the kinematic characteristics in the target recognition radardata processing link, thus failing to achieve the effect of surprise defense. In this paper, a distance parameter modulation formula is derived based on mathematical theory, through which the false target is modulated to satisfy the conservation of momentum moment as the solid target. The experimental results show that the distance spoofing false targets modulated by this method satisfies the conservation of momentum moment.

Surveillance radar systems equipped with active electronically scanned antenna arrays (AESA) typically operate with low spatial resolution (50 to 100 m). Under these conditions, the data transformation from the radar signal in the frequency, array position and slow time dimensions to the reflectivity map in the range, angle and Doppler dimensions is conventionally performed by a 3-D fast Fourier transform (FFT). In this paper, we consider a radar system equipped with a wide, near-field array, providing high angular resolution, and examine the changes required in the matched filter-based signal processing to accommodate this sensing geometry. Beamforming techniques that include exact, approximate, FFT-based and sparse-array-based matched filter implementations are investigated. Additionally, we consider joint Doppler-azimuth mapping with wide antenna arrays, while the system operates with narrowband waveforms to allow decoupling of range from the other two signal dimensions. In the numerical examples, we demonstrate a 200-m-wide, S-band sparse array capable of achieving 0.03 degrees resolution in azimuth. Processing with a fully coupled, high range resolution system equipped with a wide antenna array will be investigated in a future publication.

Trajectory drift is a significant issue in intelligent vehicles that rely on multi-source fusion for achieving autonomous navigation, hindering the accurate positioning of these vehicles. Existing loop-closure algorithms mostly rely on single-sensordata, such as visual or LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) data, making their performance susceptible to degradation in challenging environments. This paper proposes a novel loop-closure detection algorithm. It employs ORB (Oriented FAST and Rotated BRIEF) feature points from visual data for loop-closure candidate frame detection, confirms loop-closure frames using depth values mapped from LiDAR data onto images, and finally utilizes GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) raw data to validate and correct trajectory drift further. The paper concludes by validating the stability and robustness of the proposed loop-closure algorithm through simulations with various publicly available datasets, thereby assessing its performance in large-scale and complex environments. Furthermore, by integrating the proposed loop-closure algorithm into an openly accessible online odometer, the results demonstrate an improvement in position estimation accuracy by 83.45%.

This research topic aims at designing a high-performance millimeter-wave radar digital processing accelerator. According to the current millimeter-wave radar point cloud generation algorithm, the internal computing components of the accelerator mainly include Fast Fourier Transform(FFT), Constant False Alarm Rate(CFAR), windowing, and other submodules. To minimize the interference of the central processor with this accelerator as much as possible, this research designs an operational register that is highly versatile, reusable, and circular. After parameter programming by the user, the accelerator can independently and continuously complete the operation of the point cloud generation algorithm. The experiments show that the accelerator can independently calculate complex sample data of 256*32 size without external interference. After the operations of 2DFFT and ABS, the relative error remains below 10% compared to MATLAB. The computational results of 2D-CFAR are entirely consistent with the simulated results from MATLAB.

The emergence of 5G networks in frequency bands close to those used by aviation radar altimeters introduces new interference challenges, necessitating innovative solutions for accurate altitude prediction. This paper introduces a novel approach using machine learning (ML) algorithms to predict aircraft altitude from down sweep signals of frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar altimeters, focusing on overcoming 5G interference. It details the implementation of various ML models and the use of down sweep data, which provides unique signal characteristics advantageous for altitude estimation. The methodology involves collecting and processing real 5G signals, emulating radar altimeter operation under different interference levels to create a comprehensive dataset, and rigorously evaluating the ML models with statistical metrics to verify their accuracy in altitude prediction amidst 5G signals. The results show that this ML-based framework markedly enhances altitude estimation accuracy, offering a robust method for radar a ltimeter operation in the 5G era. This research advances flight safety by providing a solution for reliable altitude measurement despite potential 5G interference.

In this work we present a web-based system, PLATERA, and an extensive dataset, Living dataset PLATERA, designed to be used for activity recognition and monitoring in households environments. Each user of the platform can access different functions depending on their role, including activity monitoring, data management, sensorvisualization, home creation, and sensor management. The dataset contains information gathered from a variety of sensors, including motion sensors that use passive infrared (PIR) technology to detect movement, anchor devices that measure Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) to determine location, and activity bands that record physical activity data. Temperature and humidity sensors provide accurate measurements of environmental conditions, while magnetic technology powers the opening and closing sensors that operate doors. Through this work we hope to encourage the development of sensor-based activity recognition systems.
