This paper presents the results of the ocean surface current velocity estimation using 6 Radarsat-1 SAR images acquired in west coastal area near Incheon. We extracted the surface velocity from SAR images based on the Doppler shift approach in which the azimuth frequency shift is related to the motion of surface target in the radar direction. The Doppler shift was measured by the difference between the Doppler centroid estimated in the range-compressed, azimuth-frequency domain and the nominal Doppler centroid used during the SAR focusing process. The extracted SAR current velocities were statistically compared with the current velocities from the high frequency(HF) radar in terms of averages, standard deviations, and root mean square errors. The problem of the unreliable nominal Doppler centroid for the estimation of the SAR current velocity was corrected by subtracting the difference of averages between SAR and HF-radar current velocities from the SAR current velocity. The corrected SAR current velocity inherits the average of HF-radar data while maintaining high-resolution nature of the original SAR data.

At a time when securing driving safety is the most important in the development and commercialization of autonomous vehicles, AI and big data-based algorithms are being studied to enhance and optimize the recognition and detection performance of various static and dynamic vehicles. However, there are many research cases to recognize it as the same vehicle by utilizing the unique advantages of radar and cameras, but they do not use deep learning image processing technology or detect only short distances as the same target due to radar performance problems. Radars can recognize vehicles without errors in situations such as night and fog, but it is not accurate even if the type of object is determined through RCS values, so accurate classification of the object through images such as cameras is required. Therefore, we propose a fusion-based vehicle recognition method that configures data sets that can be collected by radar device and camera device, calculates errors in the data sets, and recognizes them as the same target.

대공 레이다에서 표적의 분류는 대 탄도탄 모드 수행의 가장 중요한 부분 중 하나이다. 대 탄도탄 모드에서는 항공기와 탄도탄을 분류하여 각 표적에 따른 대응 방법을 결정한다. 표적 분류의 속도와 정확도는 적의 공격에 대한 대응 능력과 직접적인 관련이 있으므로, 효율적이고 정확한 표적 분류 알고리즘이 필수적이다. 일반적으로, 레이다는 표적 분류를 위해 JEM(Jet Engine Modulation) 및 HRR(High Range Resolution), ISAR(Inverse Synthetic Array Radar) 영상 등을 사용하는데, 이러한 기법들은 표적 분류를 위한 별도의(광대역 등) 레이다 파형과 DB(Data Base) 및 분류 알고리즘을 요구한다. 본 논문은 별도의 파형 없이 실제 다기능 레이다에서 적용 가능한 표적 분류 기법을 제안한다. 특징 벡터로 추적 시 얻은 표적의 운동학적인 특징(kinematics features)을 이용하여 레이다 하드웨어 및 시간 관점에서 레이다 자원을 아끼고, 구현이 간단하여 빠르고 상대적으로 정확한 퍼지 논리(fuzzy logic)를 분류 알고리즘으로 사용하여 실제 환경에서의 적용성을 높였다. 항공기의 실측 데이터와 탄도탄의 모의 신호를 사용하여 제안한 분류 알고리즘의 성능과 적합성을 증명하였다.

본 논문은 X-밴드 항해용(선박용) 레이더를 이용한 파랑 계측시, 강설 및 강수에 의한 레이더 신호 변화 및 파랑 계측 저해 요소를 분석한다. 사용된 자료는 속초해수욕장 행정지원센터에 설치된 레이더를 활용하였으며, 비교 검증에 필요한 기상자료는 기상청과 국립해양조사원의 공공자료를 사용하였다. 기상청 공공자료는 레이더로부터 약 7km 떨어진 속초기상대에서 측정한 자료이며, 국립해양조사원 공공자료는 레이더로부터 약 3km 떨어진 해양관측부이에서 계측된다. 지금까지 강우나 강설에 의한 레이더 신호 변화는 경험적으로 전해졌을 뿐, 실제 기상데이터와 비교하여 분석한 사례는 전무하다. 이에 본 논문에서는 기상청의 강수, 강설 자료, CCTV, 레이더 신호를 시계열에서 종합적으로 분석하였다. 그 결과 강설 및 강우에 따라 레이더에서 계측된 파고의 경우 실제 파고 대비 감소되는 것을 확인하였으며, 거리에 따른 레이더 신호강도의 감소 현상도 확인되었다. 본 논문은 강설 및 강우에 따라 레이더의 신호강도 감소 현상을 다각적으로 분석한 것에 그 의의가 있다.

Convective/stratiform radar echo classification schemes by Steiner et al. (1995) and Biggerstaff and Listemaa (2000) are examined on a monsoonal front during the summer monsoon-Changma period, which is organized as a cloud cluster with mesoscale convective complex. Target radar is S-band with wavelength of 10cm, spatial resolution of 1km, elevation angle interval of 0.5-1.0 degree, and minimum elevation angle of 0.19 degree at Jindo over the Korean Peninsula. For verification of rainfall amount retrieved from the echo classification, ground-based rain gauge observations (Automatic Weather Stations) are examined, converting the radar echo grid data to the station values using the inverse distance weighted method. Improvement from the echo classification is evaluated based on the correlation coefficient and the scattered diagram. Additionally, an optimal use method was designed to produce combined rainfalls from the radar echo and Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission Precipitation Radar (TRMM/PR) data. Optimal values for the radar rain and TRMM/PR rain are inversely weighted according to the error variance statistics for each single station. It is noted how the rainfall distribution during the summer monsoon frontal system is improved from the classification of convective/stratiform echo and the use of the optimal use technique.

The automatic algorithm optimized for the Korean Peninsula was developed to detect and track the center of typhoon based on a geometrical method using high-resolution retrieved WISSDOM (WInd Syntheses System using DOppler Measurements) wind and reflectivity data. This algorithm analyzes the center of typhoon by detecting the geometric circular structure of the typhoon's eye in radar reflectivity and vorticity 2D field data. For optimizing the algorithm, the main factors of the algorithm were selected and the optimal thresholds were determined through sensitivity experiments for each factor. The center of typhoon was detected for 5 typhoon cases that approached or landed on Korean Peninsula. The performance was verified by comparing and analyzing from the best track of Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA). The detection rate for vorticity use was 15% higher on average than that for reflectivity use. The detection rate for vorticity use was up to 90% for DIANMU case in 2010. The difference between the detected locations and best tracks of KMA was 0.2° on average when using reflectivity and vorticity. After the optimization, the detection rate was improved overall, especially the detection rate more increased when using reflectivity than using vorticity. And the difference of location was reduced to 0.18° on average, increasing the accuracy.

In this study, we propose Radial basis function Neural Network(RBFNN) using Recursive Weighted Least Square Estimation(RWLSE) to effectively deal with big data class meteorological radar data. In the condition part of the RBFNN, Fuzzy C-Means(FCM) clustering is used to obtain fitness values taking into account characteristics of input data, and connection weights are defined as linear polynomial function in the conclusion part. The coefficients of the polynomial function are estimated by using RWLSE in order to cope with big data. As recursive learning technique, RWLSE which is based on WLSE is carried out to efficiently process big data. This study is experimented with both widely used some Machine Learning (ML) dataset and big data obtained from meteorological radar to evaluate the performance of the proposed classifier. The meteorological radar data as big data consists of precipitation echo and non-precipitation echo, and the proposed classifier is used to efficiently classify these echoes.

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.

Automotive Radar Systems are currently under development for various applications to increase accuracy and reliability. The target tracking is most important in single or multiple target environments for accuracy. The tracking algorithm provides smoothed and predicted data for target position and velocity(Doppler). To this end, the fixed gain filter(${\alpha}{\beta}$ filter, ${\alpha}{\beta}{\gamma}$ filter) and dynamic filter(Kalman filter, Singer-Kalman filter, etc) are commonly used. Gating is used to decide whether an observation is assigned to an existing track or new track. Gating algorithms are normally based on computing a statistical error distance between an observation and prediction. The data association takes the observation-to-track pairings that satisfied gating and determines which observation-to-track assignment will actually be made. For data association, NNPDA(Nearest Neighbor Probabilistic Data Association) algorithm is proposed. In this paper, we designed a target tracking system developed for an Automotive Radar System. We show the experimental results of the 77GHz FMCW radar sensor on the roads. Four tracking algorithms(${\alpha}{\beta}$ filter, ${\alpha}{\beta}{\gamma}$ filter, 2nd order Kalman filter, Singer-Kalman filter) have been compared and analyzed to evaluate the performance in test scenario.
