  • In this paper, a transmitter and a receiver using a Gunn diode and SBD was designed and fabricated in X-band. This system detects Doppler shift signal reflected by moving target through the homodyne detection, which is Doppler radar sensor for the measurement of the velocity of moving target. By the experimental results, the oscillating condition of the transmitter was satisfied at about the half wavelength between the supporting post of the Gunn diode in the waveguide and the waveguide short. And using the fabricated Doppler radar sensor, the velocity measurement deviation of moving target was 1.24%.

  • This paper presents a detection and ranging algorithm for a high-speed targets in the high PRF radar. We show, unlike the conventional methods, it firstly estimates Doppler frequency with a quasi-periodic pulse train prior to range processing. The estimated Doppler frequency can compensate the phase error enbeded in the received signal, which makes the signal integrated coherently in the range direction and localizes the target's signiture in low SNR. We present the derivation of the proposed algorithm and discuss how the system parameters such as the range/Doppler sampling condition, processing time and Doppler estimation error affect the performance of the proposed algorithm, which is verified by simulations.

  • The doppler effect is used for measuring the velocity of the blood flow in artery. Because of the range information, the pulsed doppler system is most commonly used. In this paper, we propose a new two-dimensional(2-D) pulsed Doppler system. Which uses second-order sampling method and serial processing. The proposed system using second-order sampling method eliminates in-phase, quadrature-phase balancing problem at demodulator of quadrature detection method. In addition, the new pulsed 2-D doppler system eliminates balancing problem of channels of 2-D doppler system because of serial processing.

  • This paper proposes a method on the performance analysis of pulse repetition frequency jitter compensation for generating Doppler profile. Exact phase compensation of each pulse is required to obtain Doppler profiles under pulse repetition frequency jitter. Three parameters such as velocity, pulse repetition frequency, and carrier frequency are examined to cause errors when conducting the pulse repetition frequency jitter compensation, then assuming well-focused Doppler profiles reflect well-conducted pulse repetition frequency jitter compensation, the proposed method in this paper utilizes the contrast to measure how well Doppler profile is generated. These are validated by electromagnetic computation data and computer simulation. Then, it is concluded which parameter is important on the performance analysis of pulse repetition frequency jitter compensation by using the contrast.

  • A mobile direct detection Doppler LIDAR based on molecular backscattering for measurement of wind in the stratosphere has been developed in Hefei, China. First, the principle of wind measurement with direct detection Doppler LIDAR is presented. Then the configuration of the LIDAR system is described. Finally, the primary experimental results are provided and analyzed. The results indicate that the detection range of the designed Doppler LIDAR reached 50 km altitude, and there is good consistency between the molecular Doppler wind LIDAR(DWL) and the wind profile radar(WPR) in the low troposphere.

  • A wind velocity is measured in a weather radar as well as the strength of return echoes from rain clouds. These wind velocities are obtained through estimation of Doppler frequencies in return signals. This kind of Doppler frequency estimation method is called as a correlation method. It is widely used in most weather radars because of less computation time. However, it may cause serious errors if a spectrum is not symmetric. Therefore, in this paper, it is shown that the improved method using 3rd order phase estimation model yields the more accurate estimation of the average Doppler frequency using various simulated weather data.

  • We propose and experimentally demonstrate a method of remote sound extraction using laser Doppler interferometry. The output frequency of a laser Doppler interferometer changes to be the same as the frequency of the acoustic wave from than object vibrated by the sound due to the Doppler effect. Based on this phenomenon, we measure the vibrational frequency of a remote target affected by a sound wave in real time, via laser Doppler interferometry. We track the peak frequency of the interferometer's output via appropriate signal processing, which confirms that the characteristics of the so detected wave are the same as that of the original sound source. We also confirm that the same method can retrieve the sound waves not only from remote sources of single tones, but from those of any sound.

  • Warhead and debris show the different micro-Doppler frequency shape in the spectrogram because of the different micro motion. So we can classify them using the micro-Doppler features. In this paper, we classified warhead and debris in the separation phase using CNN(Convolutional Neural Networks). For the input image of CNN, we used micro-Doppler spectrogram. In addition, to improve classification performance of warhead and debris, we applied the preprocessing using CA-CFAR to the micro-Doppler spectrogram. As a result, when the preprocessing of micro-Doppler spectrogram was used, classification performance is improved in all signal-to-noise ratio(SNR).

  • Position determination accuracy is strongly depending on how much precisely and frequently satellite receiver measures transmitted signals from terminals on target animals when Doppler effect is applied for position determination. ARGOS satellite system has shown relatively high position determination accuracy by operating multiple satellites, which enable operator to get more Doppler shift data from terminals. In case of animal tracking mission with single satellite, however, it is difficult for the satellite receiver to receive transmitted signals from terminals frequently during short period that satellite passes over ground terminals. This is one of the main sources to decrease position accuracy on target animals. In this paper, the Doppler rate estimation is implemented to increase the number of Doppler shift data received by single satellite. It is proved that the relatively high position determination accuracy with increased number of estimated data can be obtained. We also suggest that the Doppler rate estimation is applicable for position determination system with single satellite.

  • Characteristics of PCM(Pulse Code Modulation) waveform are suitable for target tracking. Especially in terms of dwell time, it is desirable to detect and track a moving target with the single PCM waveform for a MFR(Multi-Function Radar) which carries out multiple tasks. General PCM waveform processing includes Doppler filter bank caused by the characteristics of ambiguity function, to detect target and estimate Doppler frequency, which induces hardware burden and computational complexity. We propose a ML(Maximum Likelihood) based Doppler estimator for a PCM waveform, which is the closed form suboptimal solution and computationally efficient to estimate Doppler frequency and detect a moving target.
