This paper describes the system for evaluating the sea wave informations such as wave direction and wave length in real time, by using image data obtained from the marine X-band radar. We proposed here a method for automatic selection of the partial image data without the user's individual selection at the radar. We also discussed that the wave direction could be obtained by a 2-dimensional discrete Fourier transform algorithm. We carried some evaluation works on the algorithm through computer simulation. The obtained thirteen radar image data under several sea surface conditions were analyzed by the method described and the result was presented.

In this paper, we analysed a performance signal to noise ratio about pulse, integration coherent, and integration non coherent system in radar system. It compared existing with proposal method in order to estimation two target direction of arrival. Generally, radar system radiate pulse wave in order to decreasing distortion of return wave and transmission wave. We analysed the performance integration coherent and integration non coherent. Integration coherent is processing system before doing envelop detection, and integration non coherent is processing system after doing envelop detection. Through simulation, we analysed a performance signal to noise ratio to estimation two target range detection and estimated target direction of arrival. We showed that integration coherent system is the most good performance.

An analog to digital converter(: ADC) has been designed to extract video signals of marine X-band radar and convert to digital signals in order to produce rainfall information. X-band weather radars are suitable for high temporal-spatial resolution observations of rainfall over local ranges but they are very expensive and require professional management. The marine radars with 10-2 cost facilitate data collection and management as well as economic benefits. To validate the usefulness of the developed ADC, comparative observations were made with weather radar for short term precipitation cases. The rainfall distribution of marine radar observations are consistent with that of weather radar within a radius of 15 km. This demonstrates the usability of marine radar for rainfall observations.

This paper presents a vehicle detecting algorithm using microwave system signals. The Proposed algerian decides the breakpoint of signals using the likelihood criteria. The decided signals are segmented and simplified. The proposed searching algorithm uses the Euclid distance from the weighted signal data. We tested the proposed algorithm to compare with the segmentation which is a method using smoothing and edge detection. We confirm that the proposed algorithm is very useful for detecting vehicles by field test.

Ultra Wideband (UWB) Radar is a high-resolution radar for short distance detection which uses signals transmitted and received by each antennas in order to detect a target. It is possible to detect the respiration and heartbeat of a person without contact It is getting more and more often utilized since it is not affected by physical environment. In this paper, we implement an algorithm to detect human respiration and heartbeat rate using UWB radar signal. We process radar signals reflected from human body using Median filter, Kalman filter, Band Pass filter and so on. We also use CZT to extract breathing and heart rate. ECG (Electrocardiogram) was used for comparison of heartbeat data and we confirm that each data of ECG and UWB Radar were more than 98% identical each other.

The subsidence of ground in urban area can be caused by the occurrence of the cavity and the change in ground volumetric water content. The objective of this study is the detection of abnormal area of ground in urban area where the cavity or the change in ground volumetric water content is occurred by the ground penetrating radar signal. GPR survey is carried out on the test bed with a circular buried object. From the GPR survey, the signals filtered by the bandpass filtering are measured, and the methods consisting of gain function, time zero, background removal, deconvolution and display gain are applied to the filtered signals. As a result of application of the signal processing methods, the polarity of signal corresponds with the relation of electrical impedance of the cavity and the ground in test bed. In addition, the relative permittivity calculated by GPR signal is compared with that of predicted by volumetric water content of the test bed. The relative permittivities obtained from two different methods show similar values. Therefore, the abnormal area where the change in ground volumetric water content is occurred can be detected from the results of the GPR survey in case the depth of underground utilities is known. Signal processing methods and estimation of relative permittivity performed in this study may be effectively used to detect the abnormal area of ground in urban area.

In this paper, we present a signal processing algorithm for a marine radar system, in which the evaluation of probability of collision as well as target detection and tracking are performed. Moreover, the digital signal processor that implements the algorithm is proposed. As simulation environment, a mechanically scanning antenna utilizing FMCW signal is used, conducting the beamforming operation with 1 degrees intervals. Test board consists of DSP chips and FPGA, which enable the implemented system to operate in real-time.

The Counter-battery radar estimates the origin and impact point of the artillery by tracking the trajectory of the shell. In addition, it has the ability of identifying the type of weapon. Depending on the position between the shell and the radar, the detected signals appear differently. This has ambiguity to distinguish the type of shells. This paper compares fuzzy logic and artificial intelligence, which classifies type of shell using the parameter of signal processing step. According to the research result, artificial intelligence can improve identification rate of type of shell. The data used in the experiment was obtained from a live fire detection test.

Radars are used to detect the motion of the low flying enemy planes in the military. Radar-detected raw data are first processed and then inserted into the ground tactical C4I system. Next, these data we analyzed and broadcasted to the Shooter system in real time. But the accuracy of information and time spent on the displaying and graphical computation are dependent on the operator's capability. In this paper, we propose the Flying Object Tracking Management System that allows the displaying of the objects' trails in real time by using data received from the radars. We apply the coordinate system translation algorithm, existing communication protocol improvements with communication equipment, and signal and information computation process. Especially, radar signal duplication computation and synchronization algorithm is developed to display the objects' coordinates and thus we can improve the Tactical Air control system's reliability, efficiency, and easy-of-usage.
