전자공학 기술의 응용으로 자동차를 지능화하고, 안정성을 현격하게 높이려는 연구가 주목받고 있다. 이러한 자동차의 지능화에서 중요한 요소 기술이 되는 것이, 자동차의 주변 즉 전방/후방의 차량이나 장애물을 인식하는 주변감시 기술이다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 자동차용 장애물 인식 레이더 시스템인 FMCW 레이더 신호처리시스템을 개발한다. 이 차량용 시스템이 실제 도로 환경에서 이용되기 위해서는 무엇보다 시스템의 안정된 신뢰도가 요구되며, 즉, 기상환경 및 다양한 도로환경에 무관하게 안정적인 시스템 신뢰도를 유지하기 위한 개발에 그 최종적인 목적이 있다. 이에 레이다 시스템을 통해 자차와의 거리 및 상대속도를 인지함으로서 최종적인 장애물(선행차, 교행차) 및 자차의 주행상황을 통해 안정적인 주행경보시스템을 개발한다.

In this paper, we propose the low sldelobe digital doppler filter bank design algorithm which is practically applicable to coherent radar equipment in complex air-defense system. Using the proposed algorithm, we can obtain a digital doppler filter bank of lower peak sidelobe level and higher clutter suppression capability. In this method, it is possible to achieve higher target-detectability without loss of Target SNR. The proposed algorithms are verified by simulations and experiments.

Applications of Sigma-Delta STAP, and a method of GMTI processing are presented for GMTI(Ground Moving Target Indication) mode of airborne radar with sigma, delta, and guard channels. We showed results of performance analyses of presented methods by clutter simulation with ICM(Internal Clutter Motion), signal processing simulation and MDV(Minimum Detectable Velocity). Presented methods for Sigma-Delta STAP and GMTI processing are easy to apply practically in GMTI mode of airborne radar without restriction by specific airborne radar system.

Ladar (Laser Detection And Ranging, Lidar) is a sensor to acquire precise distances to the surfaces of target region using laser signals, which can be suitably applied to ATD (Automatic Target Detection) for guided missiles or aerial vehicles recently. It provides a range image in which each measured distance is expressed as the brightness of the corresponding pixel. Since the precise 3D models can be generated from the Ladar range image, more robust identification and recognition of the targets can be possible. If we simulate the data of Ladar sensor, we can efficiently use this simulator to design and develop Ladar sensors and systems and to develop the data processing algorithm. The purposes of this study are thus to simulate the signals of a Ladar sensor based on linear frequency modulation and to create range images from the simulated Ladar signals. We first simulated the laser signals of a Ladar using FM chirp modulator and then computed the distances from the sensor to a target using the FFT process of the simulated signals. Finally, we created the range image using the distances set.

FMCW(Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave) Radar is very useful for vehicle collision warning system and autonomous driving sensor. In this paper, the design and implementation of FMCW radar based on two chip MMIC developed as an autonomous driving sensor was described.

Recently, collision avoidance systems are under development to reduce the traffic accidents and driver comfort for automotive radar. Pulse radar can detect their range and velocities of moving vehicles using range gate and FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) of the doppler frequency. We designed the real time DSP(Digital Signal Processing) based automotive UWB(Ultra Wideband) radar, and implemented DSP to detect the range and velocity within 100ms for real time system of the automotive UWB radar. We also measured the range and velocity of a moving vehicle using designed automotive UWB radar in a real road environment.

Accurate altimetry is required for the reliable flight control of drones or unmanned air vehicles (UAVs), and the radar altimeter is commonly used owing to its accuracy for the ground level. Due to the limitation for size, weight and power consumption, the frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar is appropriate for drone because it has lower complexity than that of pulse Doppler (PD) radar. Especially, fast-ramp FMCW radar, which transmits linear FM signal during very short period, is generally utilized, because it is robust for the ego-motion of drone. Therefore, we present the design and implementation results of the radar signal processor (RSP) for fast-ramp FMCW radar system. The proposed RSP was designed with Verilog-HDL and implemented with Altera Cyclone-IV FPGA device. Implementation results show that the proposed RSP includes 27,523 logic elements, 15,798 registers and memory of 138Kbits and can measure the altimeter at the rate of 100Hz with the operating frequency of 50MHz.

Recently, drones are being used in various fields, and drone technology is also developing. The risks of drones are increasing, then technology to detect drones is important. However, it is extremely difficult to detect and recognize drones due to the low level radar cross section of the commercial drones. In this paper, a signal processor structure that was mounted the miniaturized and light-weighted was designed. in order to process large amounts of data in real time, parallel processing was performed for each channel and an algorithm was applied to shorten the operation time in each step. As a test of verifing the detection performance through test, it was confirmed that the structure design works in real time.
