In this paper, we propose an efficient surveillance RADAR(RAdio Detection And Ranging) interface control unit(ICU) design in the naval combat system. The proposed design applied a standardized architecture for modules that can be shared in ship combat system software. An error detection function for each link was implemented to increase the recognition speed of disconnection. Messages that used to be sent periodically for human-computer interaction(HCI) are now only transmitted when there is a change in the datagram. This can reduce the processing load of the console. The proposed design supplements the radar with the waterfall scope and time-limited splash recognition in relation to the hit check and zeroing of the shot when the radar processing ability is low due to the adoption of a low-cost commercial radar in the ship. Therefore, it is easy for the operator to determine whether the shot is hit or not, the probability of wrong recognition can be reduced, and the radar's resources can be obtained more effectively.

An Active Electronically Scanned Array(AESA) radar required necessarily as the Fire Control Radar(FCR) of recent fighters has ununiform detection range with regard to scan angle due to scan loss. Although the compensation method of scan loss in an AESA radar with variable dwell time is investigated, the effectiveness of the method in a fighter FCR with multi-function such as search, track, and missile guidance within limited resources should be considered systematically. In this paper, uniform search performance of an AESA radar using variable dwell time with regard to scan angle is derived. We assumed the search load of 50 % for case without changing dwell time in fixed frame time and showed the fighter FCR requirement for multi-function is not satisfied because the search load for the uniform search performance should be increased by about 100 %. On the other hand, in case of increasing the frame time for the uniform search performance and search load of 50 %, degradation of the search performance is shown by 86.7 % compared with the former. Based on these analyses, the effective beam operation strategy on an airborne AESA radar with uniform search performance in whole scan area is described with consideration of frame time, search load and performance as a whole.

Seeking and recognizing maritime targets are very important tasks for maritime safety. While searching for maritime targets using radar is possible, recognition is conducted without automatic identification system, radio communicator or visibility. If this recognition is not feasible, radar operator must tediously recognize maritime targets using movement features on radar base on know-how and experience. In this paper, to support the radar operator's mission of continuous observation, we propose an algorithm for automatic recognition of an unknown ship using movement features on radar and a method of detecting potential ship related accidents. We extract features from contact range, course and speed of four types of vessels and evaluate the recognition accuracy using SVM and suggest a method of detecting potential ship related accidents through the algorithm. Experimentally, the resulting recognition accuracy is found to be more than 90% and presents the possibility of detecting potential ship related accidents through the algorithm using information of MV Sewol. This method is an effective way to support operator's know-how and experience in various circumstances and assist in detecting potential ship related accidents.

The surveillance radar for naval ships is an essential equipment of a battle system that executes the detection and tracking of targets, and the shooting support function; it calculates the three-dimensional track of the target range, azimuth, and altitude to carry out its duty. The surveillance radar consists of an antenna, a transceiver, a processing unit, and an air dryer section. The radar radiates the transmission signal on the antenna section, receives the reflected signal from the target, and amplifies the signals on the transceiver section. The signal received from the antenna is used to provide the operator with target information in various ways. This study identified the display problems when the information about the target is displayed through the radar. The causes of the problems were analyzed and improved. The tracking disappearance phenomenon caused by the altered-course of the ship was improved on the TWS tracking algorithm. The validity of the improved TWS tracking algorithm was confirmed by the normal condition of the target status on the B-scope.

중거리 유도무기 체계가 탄도탄과 같이 기동이 심한 표적과 교전할 때에는 지상 레이더는 표적 및 유도탄 위치정보를 보다 빈번하게 전송하여야 하지만, 자신의 임무를 수행해야 하므로 유도탄 및 교전 표적에 대한 정보를 필요이상으로 자주 전송할 수 없다. 이러한 상황에서 탐색기가 자체적으로 표적의 거리, 속도, 방향을 측정함으로서 지상레이더에 추가 부담을 지우지 않고 우수한 추적 정밀도로 교전성능을 향상할 시킬 수 있는 고반복 펄스열을 사용하는 PRF 변조방식을 제안한다.

2014년 제12호 태풍 나크리(Nakri)의 영향으로 한라산 윗세오름에는 2014년 8월 2일 하루 동안 총 1,182 mm의 강수량을 보였다. 이 기록은 지금까지 한국에서 관측된 가장 높은 강수량이다. 한라산 윗세오름의 해발고도가 1,673 m이므로 강수의 산지효과에 영향을 미칠 것으로 생각된다. 이는 한라산의 다른 지점에서도 최대 강수가 관측될 가능성이 있다. 그러나 제주도에는 23개의 지상강우관측소만이 설치되어 있어 강수량을 공간적으로 정확하게 파악하기 어렵다. 이에 본 연구에서는 제주도를 대상으로 레이더(성산과 고산)와 우량계 자료를 이용하여 나크리 호우사상에 대한 최대 강수 지점을 탐색하였다. 먼저, 레이더 반사도의 고도를 해수면으로부터 250 m 간격으로 2,000 m 까지 구분하였다. 또한 각 구간에 해당되는 레이더 자료와 AWS 자료를 이용하여 Z-R 관계식을 유도하였다. 유도된 Z-R 관계식을 제주도 전역에 적용하여 최대 강수가 발생한 지점을 파악하고, 아울러, 제주도 전역에 내린 총 강수량을 추정하였다.

This research detects the features of the bright band (BB) through analysis of the vertical profile of range height indicator (RHI) and the slant range beam profile of plane position indicator (PPI) of the polarimetric radar measurements-horizontal reflectivity (ZH), differential reflectivity (ZDR), and cross-correlation coefficient (ρHV). As a result of the analysis, it is possible to clearly detect the bright band using the polarimetric radar measurements, and it is confirmed that the result is consistent by double searching for the BB using the RHI and PPI scan data at the same time. Based on these results, the accuracy of QPE (quantification of precipitation estimation) can be improved by applying the BB search method by the PPI slant range in this research to large rainfall radars that only scan PPI volumes in the field without RHI observations.

Experiments using real guided weapons for the development of the LADAR(Laser radar) are not practical. Therefore, we need computing environment that can simulate the 3D detections by LADAR. Such simulations require dealing with large sized data representing buildings and terrain over large area. And they also need the information of 3D target objects, for example, material and echo rate of building walls. However, currently used 3D models are mostly focused on visualization maintained as file-based formats and do not contain such semantic information. In this study, as a solution to these problems, a method to use a spatial DBMS and a 3D model suitable for LADAR simulation is suggested. The 3D models found in previous studies are developed to serve different purposes, thus, it is not easy to choose one among them which is optimized for LADAR simulation. In this study, 4 representative 3D models are first defined, each of which are tested for different performance scenarios. As a result, one model, "Body-Face", is selected as being the most suitable model for the simulation. Using this model, a test simulation is carried out.

The small tracking radar randomly changes the transmission period to avoid deceptive signals such as RGPO (Range Gaet Pull Off) operated on the target. Since the code repeats after a specific section, it becomes difficult to avoid a deceptive signal when the repetition is exposed. In this paper, a more realistic transmission pulse code is generated by adding random code generation through FPGA and system white noise. We present the research results of code generation that generates PRF that can avoid repetition while using pseudo-random code in EPROM using FPGA. Also, the result of designing random PRF pulse was confirmed by applying it to tracking radar.
