The modern Electronic Warfare Receivers are required to the current radar technologies like the Low Probability of Intercept(LPI) radars to avoid detection. LPI radars have features of intra-pulse modulation differ from existing radar signals. This features require counterworks such as signal confirmation and identification. Hence this paper presents a study on intra-pulse modulation recognition. The proposed method automatically recognizes intra-pulse modulation types such as LFM and NLFM using classifiers extracted from the features of each intra-pulse modulation. Several simulations are also conducted and the simulation results indicate the performance of the given method.

In this paper, we present a design for solid-state radar SSPA with sequential bias. We apply to variable extension pulse generator to eliminate signal distortion which is caused by bias rising/falling delay of power amplifier. There is an optimum impedance matching circuit to have high efficiency of GaN-power device by measuring microwave characteristics through load-pull method. The designed SSPA is consisted of pre-amplifier, drive-amplifier and main-amplifier as a three stages to apply for X-Band solid-state radar. Thereby we made a 200W SSPA which has output pulse maximum power shows 53.67dBm and its average power is 52.85dBm. The optimum design of transceiver module for solid-state pulse compression radar which is presented in this dissertation, it can be available to miniaturize and to improve the radar performances through additional research for digital radar from now on.

In this paper, estimation angle performance analysis of amplitude-comparison monopulse radar under additive noise effect is dealt with. When uncorrelated white noises are added to the squinted beams, the angle estimation performance is analyzed through the mean square error(MSE). The numerical integration-based mean square error result completely overlaps the Monte Carlo-based mean square error result, which corresponds to 99.8% of the Monte Carlo-based mean square error result. In addition, the mean square error analysis method based on numerical integration has a much faster operation time than the mean square error method based on Monte Carlo. the angle estimation performance of the amplitude comparison monopulse radar can be efficiently analyzed in various noise environments through the proposed numerical integration-based mean square error method.

Since the SRRs(Short Range Radar) load on the GVESs(Ground Vehicle Equipment System) are operated within several hundred meters, it is important to suppress the interferences between the SRRs. These interference are reduced using the frequency separation between channels, however this method isn't a perfect solution owing to a difficulty of a realization for the interference suppression. Thus, a pulse-to-pulse coding used to suppress the interference fundamentally is proposed in this paper. The concept, the application method and the test results of the proposed method have been described in this paper.

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.

지하탐사 레이더를 이용한 고 건축물의 목재 기등에 대한 비파괴 검사에 응용 가능성을 조사하였다. 실험실에 공동이 존재하는 목재 기둥을 마련하고, 자체 설계 및 제작한 안테나로 구성한 지하탐사 레이더 시스템을 이용하여 기둥 축 방향으로 안테나를 이동시키면서 펄스의 송수신 특성을 측정하였다. 측정에 사용한 펄스와 목재 기둥의 전기적 특성, 안테나, 급전선 등 레이더 시스템 전체를 3차원 FDTD로 모델링하였다. 측정과 동일한 상황에 대한 FDTD 해석결과와 측정자료가 부합됨을 입증하였다. 목재 기둥과 공동간의 낮은 유전율 차이도 쉽게 탐지할 수 있음을 보임으로써 향후 지하탐사 레이더를 고건축물의 비파괴 검사에 효과적으로 응용할 수 있음을 제시하였다.

The synthetic aperture rardar (SAR) is an active sensor using microwaves. It transmits a microwave signal, called a chirp pulse, and receives the reflected signal in a moving platform such as satellite and unmanned aerial vehicle. Since this sensor uses microwaves that can penetrate the atmosphere, SAR generates the images regardless of light and weather conditions. However SAR operates on the moving platform, the Doppler shift and the side-looking observation method should be considered. In addtion, a residual image or ghost image can be occurred according to selection of the pulse repetition frequency (PRF). In this paper, a range design of the PRF for the L-band spaceborne SAR system is studied for prevention of SAR image distortion. And the system is studied for prevention of SAR image distortion. And the system parameter and the PRF are calibrated iteratively according to the proposed system design procedure and design constraints. The MATLAB based on SAR system simulator has been developed to verify the validity of calculated PRF. The developed simulator assumes that SAR sensor is operated by the PRF calculated from the design. The results of the simulator show that the targets in image has a valid peak to side-lobe ratio (PSLR) so that the PRF can be used for the spaceborne SAR sensor.

레이더(Radio Detection and Ranging)는 전파를 방사하여 그 반사파에 의해 목표의 존재 유무, 거리, 상태 등을 확인하기 위한 무선장치를 말한다. 이와 같은 특성의 레이더를 사용하면 인간의 눈이나 감각으로 확인할 수 없는 여러 가지 정보들을 원거리에서 감지할 수 있으며 그 결과를 파악하여 대처할 수 있도록 해준다. 이러한 다양한 정보를 센싱하는 레이더 기능을 구현하기 위해서는 많은 정보를 포함할 수 있는 광대역 주파수 이용과 많은 반복 펄스의 송수신신호를 필요로 하게 되며 이러한 초광대역 주파수 특성의 극단 임펄스를 이용한 레이더 센싱 기술이 디지털 신호처리와 RF 기술 발전에 따라 급속한 기술발전이 이루어지고 있으며 응용 범위도 다양한 분야로 확장되고 있다. 본고에서는 이러한 새로운 레이더 방식으로 부각되고 있는 UWB 레이더의 국내외 기술동향을 소개하고자 한다.

In this paper, we present new signal de-interleaving method for the frequency agility radar in which the carrier frequency is changed irregularly. Generally radar use a fixed carrier frequency, and it is easy for electronic warfare system to de-interleave the radar signal with respect to the frequency, pulse width(PW), and direction of signal arriving(DOA). In frequency agility radar, it is difficult to de-interleave the radar signals according to the carrier frequency because the frequency is changed irregularly. We suggest a good de-interleaving method to identify the frequency agility radar signals in comparison with PRI's of radars. First we calculate pulse repeat Interval(PRI) of radar in linked-list and queue structure and de-interleave the radar signals with PRI, PW, and DOA, then identify the frequency agility radar. When we use the proposed algorism to the frequency agility radar, we have a good de-interleaving results with electronic warfare systems.

The Electronic Support System collects and analyzes the received radar signals in order to cope with the electronic attack in real-time. The radar-pulse clustering system classifies the radar signals that are considered to be emitted by a single source. This paper proposed a radar-pulse clustering algorithm based on four kinds of features: the direction, frequency, pulse width, and the difference of arrival time between two successive pulses. The experiment results show that the proposing algorithm could trace the moving emitter and classify the timely separated signals into different classes.
