A ground moving target's velocity estimation algorithm applicable for a SAR-GMTI system using 2 channel displaced phase center antenna(DPCA) is proposed. In this algorithm, we assume target's across-track velocity can be estimated by along-track interferometry (ATI) and present a method to estimate target's along-track velocity. To accomplish this method, we first transform a radar-target geometry in which a moving target has zero velocity via altering a radar velocity such that target's velocity is reflected into it and next manipulate the spectral centers of the subapertures within the synthetic aperture. The validity of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated through simulation results showing the performance of the target's velocity estimation and the enhancement of reconstructed target image quality in terms of resolution and SINR.

The optimum solutions of the instability of the target velocity were studied to solve the case of the target velocity of the ship approaching at a speed of ◯◯knots and deviated by more than ± 10knots, while the surveillance radar rotating speed was varied, while the maximum search range of the radar was evaluated during the operational test & evaluation. The instability of the target velocity did not enable the radar to calculate the information of the target precisely and to degrade the probability of hit and the quality of the target management. The improvement to handle the deviation of the target velocity was optimally determined by using a fishbone diagram to find 9 reasons based on 4M1E, and the algorithm of the target management was identified as the crucial reason. In this study, the improvement was applied to the filter algorithm to stabilize the target velocity in the target tracking management SW by reviewing the current algorithm to find the velocity of the target and recognizing that the problem does not apply to different 𝜶, 𝞫 values when the antenna changed the rotating speed. The ability of the improvement to work was tested on board.

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.

본 논문에서는 기동하는 표적을 추적하기 위한 표적의 운동 모델링 방법에 대해서 다룬다. 실제 표적의 운동은 진행방향으로의 가속과 이와는 독립적인 방향 전환으로 이루어진다는 점에 착안하여 표적의 진행방향에 따라 동작 잡음의 분산 행렬이 변화하는 표적 중심 모델을 제안하고, 이를 IMMPDAF(Interacting Multiple Model Probabilistic Data Association Filter)에 적용하였다. 모의실험을 통해 기존의 모델을 사용한 IMMPDAF와 비교하였으며, 그 결과 기동 구간의 오차가 30% 정도 줄어들며 추적 실패율도 낮아짐을 볼 수 있었다.

A conventional Closest Point of Approach (CPA) analysis allows a non-maneuvering moving source that is radiating a constant frequency tone to be located using doppler shifted frequency measurements obtained by a stationary receiver. The original frequency, relative speed of the target, time at the CPA, and range from the CPA to the sensor are estimated by the conventional CPA. However, this paper proposes a new CPA analysis that allows the motion parameters of a target to be estimated using the bearing and frequency measurements obtained by a moving receiver that has a constant velocity. The validity of the proposed estimation scheme is confirmed through a performance analysis and simulation study.

We propose a method for improving detection speed of small target detection system using SAD algorithm. First, the proposed method deletes clutters using a median filter. Next, it does closing and opening operation using various size of structure elements, and extracts candidate pixels for a target with subtraction operation between the results of closing and opening operation. It finally detects a small target using a gaussian distance function from the candidate pixels. To improve detection speed, it detects a target performing SAD algorithm only for the predicted target areas for next every 7 frames. The proposed method not only enables a real time process because it considers only predicted area but also shows detecting rate of 97%.

In this paper, we propose deep learning-based target distance and velocity estimation technique for OFDM radar systems. In the proposed technique, the 2D periodogram is obtained via 2D fast Fourier transform (FFT) from the reflected signal after removing the modulation effect. The periodogram is the input to the conventional and proposed estimators. The peak of the 2D periodogram represents the target, and the constant false alarm rate (CFAR) algorithm is the most popular conventional technique for the target's distance and speed estimation. In contrast, the proposed method is designed using the multiple output convolutional neural network (CNN). Unlike the conventional CFAR, the proposed estimator is easier to use because it does not require any additional information such as noise power. According to the simulation results, the proposed CNN improves the mean square error (MSE) by more than 5 times compared with the conventional CFAR, and the proposed estimator becomes more accurate as the number of transmitted OFDM symbols increases.

In a conventional sonar system, which uses LFM signal for detecting targets with varying speed, the results of multiple LFM Doppler correlators are aligned and the maximum alined result are selected as a test cell for detecting targets. As the number of the LFM Doppler correlators are increased for accurate target detection, as the required computational complexity and the memory are also increased. This fact makes it difficult to implement the accurate LFM target detector. In this paper, we propose a new fast target detection which is robust for the variation of target speed. Because the proposed method uses the summation of alined results of large numbers of LFM Doppler correlators, the proposed method increase SNR and provide robust SNR for the variation of target speed. And the proposed method can provide very fast target detection by implementing the process, the summation of alined results of large numbers of LFM Doppler correlators, as one summation filter.

The radar operated to detect/track aircraft targets is divided into a search radar that operates while the antenna rotating device rotates for the purpose of detecting the target according to the mission characteristics, and a tracking radar that periodically steers and tracks a beam to the predicted position of the target. The tracking radar has a shorter target information acquisition preiod than the search radar. Due to this characteristic, the tracking accuracy is better than that of the search radar, but as the prediction error increases due to the speed error at the beginning of the tracking, there are many cases in which tracking fails at the beginning of tracking due to failure to perform beam steering normally. In this paper, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, we propose an algorithm for improving the accuracy of track initiation using radial velocity measurements in addition to the position of the measured, and confirm the performance of the proposed algorithm by comparing with the two point differential algorithm
