A development of a software on radar target signature analysis is presented in this paper The target signature includes Radar Cross Section(RCS) prediction, Range Profile(RP) processing and Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar(ISAR) processing. Physical Optics(PO) is the basic calculation method for RCS prediction and Geometrical Optics(GO) is used for ray tracing in the field calculation of multiple reflection. For RP and ISAR, Fast Fourier Transform(FFT) and Matrix Pencil(MP) method were implemented for post-processing. Those results are integrated into two separate softwares named as Radar Target Signature Generator(RTSG) and Radar Target Signature Analyser(RTSA). Several test results show good performances in radar signature prediction and analysis.

In B-scan data measured by a pulse-type monostatic borehole radar, target signatures are seriously obscured by two clutters that differ in orientation and intensity. The primary clutter appears as a nearly constant time delay, which is caused by internal ringing between antenna and transceiver in the radar system. The secondary clutter occurs as an oblique time delay due to the guided borehole wave along the logging cable of the radar antenna. This issue led us to perform adaptive filtering processing for orientation-based clutter removal. This letter describes adaptive filtering processing consisting of a combination of edge detection, data rotation, and eigenimage filtering. We show that the hyperbolic signatures of a dormant air-filled tunnel target can be more distinctly enhanced by applying the proposed approach to the B-scan data, which are measured in a well-suited test site for underground tunnel detection.

One-dimensional radar signature, such as range profile, is highly dependent on the aspect angle. Therefore, radar target recognition over wide angular region is a very difficult task. In this paper, we propose the Bayes classifier with Gaussian mixture model for radar target recognition over wide-angular region and compare performances of proposed technique and radar target recognition with subclasses concept in the literature of probability of correct classification ratio.

본 논문에서는 지상레이다가 추적 중인 항공기로부터 획득한 수신신호를 이용하여 도플러 형상(signature)을 추출하였다. 이를 위해 펄스열(pulse train) 파형의 수학적 모델로부터 레이다의 도플러 해상도를 검증하고, 비행 중인 항공기 도플러 형상이 엔진에 대한 레이다 측각(aspect angle)과 엔진의 제원에 따라 결정됨을 보였다. 이를 확인하기 위해 비행 중인 항공기에서 반사된 레이다 수신신호를 레이다 수신신호 저장장치를 이용하여 획득하고, 수신신호로부터 도플러 형상을 추출한 후, 항공기 추적 정보로부터 엔진에 대한 레이다 측각을 추정하였다. 이들 결과를 조합하여 측각에 대한 상대 도플러 형상 차이를 확인하고, 레이다에 사용가능한 표적인식용 도플러 프로파일을 제안하였다.

In this paper, we implement a distributed FMCW MIMO radar system to obtain Micro Doppler signatures of target motions. In addition, we also develop federated learning based motion recognition algorithm based on the Micro-Doppler radar signature collected by the implemented FMCW MIMO radar system. Through the experiment, we have verified that the proposed federated learning based algorithm can improve the motion recognition accuracy up to 90%.

Although radar target signatures(RTS), such as range profiles have played an important role for target recognition in the X-band radar, they would be less effective when a target is designed to have low radar cross section(RCS). Recently, a number of research groups have conducted the studies on the RTS in the VHF-band where such targets can be better detected than in the X-band. However, there is a lack of work carried out on the mathematical description of the VHF-band RTS. In this paper, chirplet decomposition is employed for modeling of the VHF-band RTS and its performance is compared with that of existing scattering center model generally used for the X-band. In addition, the discriminative signal analysis is performed by chirplet parameterization of range profiles from in an ISAR image. Because the chirplet decomposition takes long computation time, its fast form is further proposed for enhanced practicality.

To acquire radar target signature, various kinds of target are necessary. Measurement is one of the data acquiring method, but much time and high cost is required to get the target data from the real targets. Even if we can afford that, the targets we can access are very limited. To obtain target signatures avoiding these problems, we build the target CAD (Computer Aided Design) model for the calculation of target signatures. To speed up RCS calculation, we applied adaptive super-sampling and tested quite complex tank CAD model which is 1.4 hundred of thousands facet. We use calculated RCS data for ID range profile and 2D ISAR (Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar) image formation. We adopted IFFT (Inverse Fast Fourier Transform) algorithm combined with polar formatting algorithm for the ISAR imaging. We could confirm the possibility of the construction of database from the images of CAD models for target classification applications.

제트엔진변조(Jet Engine Modulation: JEM) 식별기법은 제트엔진의 주기적인 회전에 의해 변조되는 레이더 반사 신호로부터 제트엔진의 종류를 식별하는 기법이다. 본 논문에서는 JEM의 새로운 접근법으로서, 제트엔진의 특성을 추출하기 위한 자동화 알고리즘을 제안한다. 먼저 복소 신호의 경험적인 모드 분리법(Complex Empirical Mode Decomposition: CEMD)을 거친 JEM 신호의 자기상관도로부터 제트엔진의 회전 주기를 산출한다. 그 후 DM(Divisor-Multiplier) 규칙 및 'Scoring' 개념을 JEM 스펙트럼 해석에 도입하여 최종적인 날개개수를 추정한다. 시뮬레이션 및 측정 JEM 신호로의 적용 결과를 통해 제안된 알고리즘이 정확하고 자동적인 제트엔진 정보 추출에 효과적임을 입증하였다.

The summer polar lower thermosphere (90-100 km) has an interesting connection to meteors, adjacent to the mesopause region attaining the lowest temperature in summer. Meteors supply condensation nuclei for charged ice particles causing polar mesospheric summer echoes (PMSE). We report the observation of meteor trail with nearly horizontal transit at high speed (20-50 km/s), and at last with re-enhanced echo power followed by diffusive echoes. Changes in phase difference between radar receivers aligned in meridional and zonal directions are used to determine variations in horizontal displacements and speeds with respect to time by taking advantage of radar interferometric analysis. The actual transit of echo target is observed along the straight pathway vertically and horizontally extended as much as a distance of at least 24 km and at most 29 km. The meteor trail initially has a signature similar to 'head echoes', with travel speeds from 20 - 50 km/s. It subsequently transforms into a different type of echo target including specular echo and then finally the power reenhanced. The reenhancement of echo power is followed by fume-like diffusive echoes, indicating sudden release of plasma as like explosive process probably involved. We discuss a possible role of meteor-triggered secondary plasma trail, such as fireball embedded with electrical discharge that continuously varies the power and transit speed.

There are increasing demands to provide early warning against intruding drones and cope with potential threats. Commercial anti-drone systems are mostly based on simple target detection by radar reflections. In real scenario, however, it becomes essential to obtain drone radar signatures so that hostile targets are recognized in advance. We present experimental test results that micro-Doppler radar signature delivers partial information on multi-rotor platforms and exhibits limited performance in drone recognition and classification. Afterward, we attempt to generate high resolution profile of flying drone targets. To this purpose, wide bands radar signals are employed to carry out inverse synthetic aperture radar(ISAR) imaging against moving drones. Following theoretical analysis, experimental field tests are carried out to acquire real target signals. Our preliminary tests demonstrate that high resolution ISAR imaging provides effective measures to detect and classify multiple drone targets in air.
