This paper presents the measuring technique of time and velocity when rocket motor is burnt out for 2.751" rocket. This technique use doppler effect, frequency spectrum analysis and curve fitting. In this study, we use muzzle velocity radar for doppler signal acquisition, short-time fourier transform for spectrum analysis and curve fitting for smoothing.

For the remote sensing purpose, radar systems extract the target information, such as the magnitude of reflectivity and the velocity from the spectrum analysis of return echoes through the Doppler filter bank. This conventional spectrum estimation method, FFT(Fast fourier Transform) is widely used in most radar systems. However, the frequency resolution of return echoes can be seriously degraded in fast moving targets because of the short acquisition time. Since the high Doppler frequency resolution is important in the detection and tracking of fast moving targets, it can cause very unsatisfactory results. Therefore, in this paper, the parameter spectrum estimation method called AR(Autoregressive) spectrum estimation, is investigated to overcome these problems.

When measuring the radiated noise of an underwater vehicle, range information between acoustic source and receiver is an important evaluating factor, but it cannot use GPS. There is a method of using the cross correlation for finding the range of the acoustic source instead of the GPS. However, this method has heavy computational loads. This paper proposes a fast Fourier transform based method with a relatively small amount of computation to estimate the range of a source. The proposed method estimates Doppler frequencies of CW signals received at multiple receivers by fast Fourier transform and estimates the source range by comparing theoretical Doppler frequencies map previously calculated by a receiver position and source depth information. Simulation and lake trial were performed to verify the performance.

In this paper, a method of estimating speech parameters for ultrasonic Doppler signals reflected from the articulatory muscles using LSTM (Long Short Term Memory) RNN (Recurrent Neural Networks) was introduced and compared with the method using MLP (Multi-Layer Perceptrons). LSTM RNN were used to estimate the Fourier transform coefficients of speech signals from the ultrasonic Doppler signals. The log energy value of the Mel frequency band and the Fourier transform coefficients, which were extracted respectively from the ultrasonic Doppler signal and the speech signal, were used as the input and reference for training LSTM RNN. The performance of LSTM RNN and MLP was evaluated and compared by experiments using test data, and the RMSE (Root Mean Squared Error) was used as a measure. The RMSE of each experiment was 0.5810 and 0.7380, respectively. The difference was about 0.1570, so that it confirmed that the performance of the method using the LSTM RNN was better.

A weather radar system generally shows the weather phenomena related with rainfall and wind velocity. These systems are usually very helpful to monitor the relatively high altitude weather situation for the wide and long range area. However, since the weather hazards due to the strong hail and heavy rainfall occurring locally are observed frequently in recent days, it is important to detect these wether phenomena. For this purpose, it is necessary to detect the fast varying low altitude weather conditions. In this environment, the effect of surface clutter is more evident and the antenna dwell time is much shorter. Therefore, the conventional Doppler spectrum estimation method may cause serious problems. In this paper, the AR(autoregressive) Doppler spectrum estimation methods were applied to solve these problems and the results were analyzed. Applied methods show that improved Doppler spectra can be obtained comparing with the conventional FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) method.

This paper studied a method of estimating target information using a radar in wireless communication. Position information on the target can be estimated angle, distance and velocity. The velocity information can be estimated since the Doppler frequency is changed in the moving target. The signal incident on the receiving array antenna is multiplied by the delay time and the reference signal to represent the output signal. This output signal is estimated by applying FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) after calculating signal correlation through correlation integrator. Since the output signal must be calculated within the correlator, it should be processed with the Dwell time. The correlation signal of the correlation integrator outside this Dwell time is indicated by the velocity measurement error. The FFT is applied to the signal that has passed through the correlated integrator in order to estimate the distance of the signal. The Doppler resolution must be improved because the FFT estimates target information using the Doppler information. The Doppler resolution decreases with increasing the integration time. The velocity information estimation should have no spread of the velocity. As a result of the simulation, there was no spread of the target velocity in this study.

It is necessary to estimate the Doppler spectrum for each range cell for the extraction of useful information from the return echoes in radar systems used for the remote sending purpose. However, The conventional spectrum estimation method, FFT(Fast Fourier Transform), called the Doppler filter bank, causes the frequency resolution problem if the dwell time is relatively short. This short acquisition time also spreads the side lobe levels of return echoes further, resulting in difficulties for the discrimination of weak target signals included in relatively strong target echoes. Therefore, in this paper, the efficient Doppler spectrum estimation methods are compared and investigated through the parameter spectrum estimation in the time domain to overcome these problems.

In modern electronic warfare, RADAR is under constant threat of ECM(Electronic Counter Measures) signals from nearby jammers. The conventional linear frequency modulated(Linear-FM) waveform is easy to be intercepted to estimate its signal parameters due to its periodical phase transition. Recently, APCN(Advanced Pulse Compression Noise) waveform using random amplitude and phase transition was proposed for LPI(Low probability of Intercept). But random phase code signals such as APCN waveform tend to be sensitive to Doppler frequency shift and result in performance degradation during moving target detection. In this paper, random phase and code rate transition based radar waveform(RPCR) is proposed for Doppler tolerance improvement. Time frequency analysis is carried out through ambiguity analysis to validate the improved Doppler tolerance of RPCR waveform. As a means to measure the vulnerability of the proposed RPCR waveform against LPI, WHT(Wigner-Hough Transform) is adopted to analyze and estimate signal parameters for ECCM(Electronic Counter Counter Measures) application.

This paper deals with the vibration deflection shape measurement technique for a sinusoidally excited structure using a continuously scanning laser Doppler vibrometer (CSLV). The CSLV output signal is an amplitude-modulated vibration in which the excitation signal is modulated by the deflection shapes, and thus the deflection shapes of vibration defined along a scan line can be derived by the envelop and the phase information of the CSLV output signal. In this work, a Hilbert transform based approach has been proposed for measurement of deflection shapes. This technique is as simple as the demodulation technique and allows more convenient experimental settings than the Fourier transform approach. The feasibility of the proposed technique is illustrated along with results of experiment.

The current velocity and turbulence information in each range cell can be obtained from the first and second Doppler spectrum moment estimates. However, the very widely used correlation method often called as the pulse-pair method has the inherent restrictions under the highly turbulent conditions since it does not satisfy the assumptions that the return Doppler spectrum should be symmetric and have a single peak value. Therefore, in this paper, the quality of pulse-pair estimates were compared with that of FFT estimates for problem analysis using various shapes of simulated Doppler spectra. It can be known that the pulse-pair method often yields meaningless results if the received signals are severely biased or multi-peak Doppler spectra in the Doppler frequency domain.
