정합장처리를 이용한 표적의 탐지는 다양한 종류의 간섭표적들이 존재하는 환경에서 수행될 가능성이 크며, 따라서 분해능이 높은 적응 정합장처리를 사용이 요구된다. 반면 빠르게 움직이는 고소음의 간섭표적이 존재 할 경우에는 적응정합장처리를 수행하기위한 신호단편 (snapshot) 수를 충분하게 사용할 수 없는 상황에 직면하게 된다. 제한된 신호단편을 이용하여 적응정합장처리의 CSDM (cross-spectral density matrix)을 안정적으로 추정하기 위한 목적으로 선형빔형성에서 제안되었던 광대역 STMV (steered minimum varianve) 기법을 도입하였다. MAPLE03 실험환경을 이용하여 STMV의 적응정합장처리 수치실험을 수행하고 특성을 분석하였다.

수중환경에서 표적의 탐지 성능을 향상시키기 위하여 능동 소나에서는 높은 시간-대역폭곱의 파형들을 사용하며 대표적인 것으로 LFM 펄스를 들 수 있다 LFM 펄스를 사용하여 표적까지의 거리와 표적의 속도를 추정하는 방법으로는 모호함수를 사용하는 방법과 deconvolution 방법 및 FR-기반 기법 등이 있다. 이러한 기법중 모호함수 사용 방법과 deconvolution 방법은 능동 소나의 운용 주파수 대역에서 많은 연산량이 요구되므로 실제 시스템에 적용하기에는 제약을 받는다. 그리고 다른 기법에 비해 적은 연산량을 가지는 FFT-기반 상관관계 기법은 실제 시스템에 적용이 가능하지만 다중경로에 의한 성능 저하를 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 적은 연산량을 가지는 FFT-기반 기법을 보완하여 다중경로에 적용 가능한 새로운 탐지기를 제안한다.

A 3-D multi-function radar(MFR) is a modern radar to provide various target information, such as range, doppler, and angle by performing surveillance, multiple target tracking, and missile guidance. In this paper, we introduced a real-time radar signal processor(RSP), which is a crucial component of MFR with its design, implementation using high-speed multiple DSP, and performance. Additionally, we verified that several advanced signal processing algorithms were well-performed in our RSP, such as MCA-CFAR algorithm for target detection in clutter environment, range and velocity measurement algorithm using discriminator estimation, and noise jammer detection algorithm using local minimum selection.

A short-range underwater target detection and identification techniques using mid- and high-frequency bands have been highly developed. However, nowadays the long-range detection using the low-frequency band is requested and one of the most challengeable issues. The waveform inversion technique is widely used and the hottest technology in both academia and industry of the seismic exploration. It is based on the numerical analysis tool, and could construct more than a few kilometers of the subsurface structures and model-parameters such as P-wave velocity using a low-frequency band. By applying this technique to the underwater acoustic circumstance, firstly application of underwater target detection is verified. Furthermore, subsurface structures and it's parameters of the war-field are well reconstructed. We can confirm that this technique greatly reduces the false-alarm rate for the underwater targets because it could accurately reproduce both the shape and the model-parameters at the same time.

Ryu et al. proposed a multiple target DOA tracking algorithm using a linear sensor array. In Ryu's algorithm first, the signal subspace is estimated using sensor output and the angular innovations of targets are extracted from the estimated signal subspace. Next, the DOA's of targets are tracked using the angular innovations as the inputs of Kalman filters. Ryu's algorithm has good features that it has no data association problem and is efficient. However, Ryu's algorithm can't be a lied to an arbitrarily shaped array because it was proposed using linear sensor array. Actually, when the sensor array is used in the various application fields, sensors have a position error. Therefore, the sensor array can be an arbitrarily shaped array. In this paper, we propose a multiple target DOA tracking algorithm applicable to an arbitrarily shaped array, and it sustains the good features of Ryu's algorithm.

The problem of maneuvering target tracking has been studied in the field of the state estimation over decades. The Kalman filter has been widely used to estimate the states of the target, but in the presence of a maneuver, its performance may be seriously degraded. In this paper, to solve this problem and track a maneuvering target effectively, DNA coding-based intelligent Kalman filter (DNA coding-based IKF) is proposed. The proposed method can overcome the mathematical limits of conventional methods and can effectively track a maneuvering target with only one filter by using the fuzzy logic based on DNA coding method. The tracking performance of the proposed method is compared with those of the adaptive interacting multiple model (AIMM) method and the GA-based IKF in computer simulations.

In general, an error budget of monopulse radar is proposed by manufacturer who assuming that all of external enviromental error resources such as multipath, glint, dynamic lag variation are removed. So until now, a measurement uncertainty of monopulse radar can be discussed including external enviromental error resources. In this paper, it is described that which kinds of error resource can effect on monopulse radar measurement uncertainty for different target property. To prove it experimentally, at first a simulation result is described assuming that all of external enviromental error resources are removed. It only includes receiver thermal noise. And then, monopulse radar measurement uncertainty estimation results tracking on calibration target which is fixed on specific position, calibration sphere which is moving slowly, weapon systems firing test which is moving fast are described quantitativly. All of these targets have different dynamic property.

High Resolution Range Profile-Jet Engine Modulation imagery first introduced in 2005 carries out radar target recognition by localizing the position of the jet engine installed on the aircraft target. This paper presents a new approach for estimating the jet engine position in the HRRP-JEM image based on the eccentricity of a complex signal. It can effectively evaluate the contribution of the JEM component to the radar received signal in a range bin of the HRRP-JEM image. Therefore, the localization is expected to be performed more quantitatively and reliably by pinpointing the range bin corresponding to the jet engine position where the JEM contribution is maximized. The simulation results of realistic aircraft models validated the effectiveness of the proposed concept.

When an array receives a signal with a frequency higher than the design frequency, there is an ambiguity in beamforming due to spatial aliasing. In order to overcome this problem, Abadi proposed frequency-difference beamforming. However, there is a constraint that the minimum frequency bandwidth is required according to the value of the difference frequency. In this paper, we propose a method to find the direction of the target signal with spatial aliasing based on the frequency-wavenumber spectrum combined with Radon transform. The proposed method can estimate the direction of the target without ambiguities when the signal has nonnegligible bandwidth. We tested the algorithm by simulating a broadband signal and verified the results with the frequency-difference beamforming method using SAVEX15 (Shallow Water Acoustic Variability EXperiment 2015)'s shrimp noise data.

In this paper, we address the target positioning performance of Multi-Static sonar with respect to target positioning method and measurement error. Based on the analysis on two candidate solution approaches, namely, Least Square (LS) using range and angular information simultaneously and Maximum Likelihood (ML) using only range information as the existing information fusion methods for possible application to Multi-Static sonar, we propose to employ ML using range and angular information. Assuming that each sensor can receive range and angular information, we conduct representative comparison experiments over the existing and proposed methods under various measurement noise scenarios. We also investigate the target positioning performance according to number of sensors, distance between transmitter and receiver. According to the experimental results, RMSE of the proposed ML with distance and direction information is found to be more superior to ML using distance alone and to LS in case distance between transmitter and receiver is longer and number of receiver is smaller.
