  • An event-based, kinematic, infiltration-excess, and distributed rainfall-runoff model using weather radar and Geographic Information System(GIS) was developed to acknowledge and account lot the spatial variability and uncertainty of several parameters relevant to storm surface runoff and surface flow The developed model is compatible with raster GIS and spatially and temporally varied rainfall data. To calibrate the model, Monte Carlo simulation and a likelihood measure are utilized; allowing for a range of possible system responses from the calibrated model. Using rain gauge adjusted radar-rainfall estimates, the developed model was applied and evaluated to a limited number of historical events for the Ralston Creek and Goldsmith Gulch basins within the Denver Urban Drainage and Flood Control District (UDFCD) that contain mixed land use classifications. While based on a limited number of Monte Carlo simulations and considered flood events, Nash and Sutcliffe efficiency score ranges of -0.19∼0.95 / -0.75∼0.81 were obtained from the calibrated models for the Ralston Creek and Goldsmith Gulch basins, based on a comparison of observed and simulated hydrographs. For the Ralston Creek and Goldsmith Gulch basins, Nash and Sutcliffe efficiency scores of 0.88/0.10, 0.14/0.71, and 0.99/0.95 for runoff volume, peak discharge, and time to peak, respectively, were obtained from the model.

  • A location tracking sensor such as GPS, INS, Radar, and optical equipments is used in tracking Maneuvering Targets with a multi-sensor, and such systems are used to track, detect, and control UAV, guided missile, and spaceship. Until now, Most of the studies related to tracking Maneuvering Targets are on fusing multiple Radars, or adding a supplementary sensor to INS and GPS. However, A study is required to change the degree of application in fusions since the system property and error property are different from sensors. In this paper, we perform the error analysis of the sensor properties by adding a ground radar to GPS and INS for improving the tracking performance by multi-sensor fusion, and suggest the tracking algorithm that improves the precision and stability by changing the sensor probability of each sensor according to the error. For evaluation, we extract the altitude values in a simulation for the trajectory of UAV and apply the suggested algorithm to carry out the performance analysis. In this study, we change the weight of the evaluated values according to the degree of error between the navigation information of each sensor to improve the precision of navigation information, and made it possible to have a strong tracking which is not affected by external purposed environmental change and disturbance.

  • For a target echo containing interference, it is very difficult to improve the performance of a monopulse radar with spatial domain processing, because the statistical property of interference cannot be exclusively obtained. This paper proposes a monopulse system that has a generalized sidelobe canceller(GSC) filter-based time domain processor as a preprocessor prior to conventional monopulse spatial processing. We analytically show the procedure of time-space signal processing running in the system, and assess its performance through simulation. In particular, the performance dependence on the number of taps in the main channel filter and the estimation error in Doppler frequency are assessed by comparison with those of existing systems.

  • The radar measurements are composed of range, Doppler and angles which are expressed as polar-coordinate components. An approach to match the measurements with the states of target dynamics which are modeled in cartesian coordinates is to use the pseudo-measurements or the extended Kalman filter in order to solve the mismatching problem. Another approach is that the states of dynamics are modeled in polar coordinates and measurement equation is linear. However, this approach bears that we have to deal with a time-varying dynamics. In this study, it is proposed that the states of dynamics are expressed as polar-coordinate component and the system matrix of the dynamic equation is modeled as a time-invariant. Nonlinear terms that appear due to the proposed modeling are regarded as a system input. The results of a series of simulation runs indicate that the tracking filter that uses the proposed modeling is viable from the fact that the Doppler measurement is easy to be augmented in the measurement equation.

  • Two types of conformal load-bearing antenna structure (CLAS) were designed with microwave composite laminates and Nomex honeycomb cores, to give both structural rigidity and good electrical performance. One is 4$\times$8 array for Synthetic Aperture Radar(SAR) system and the other is $5\times2$ array for wireless LAN system. Design was based on wide bandwidth, high polarization purity, low loss and good structural rigidity. We studied the design, fabrication and structural/electrical performances of the antenna structures. The flexural behavior was observed under a 3-point bending test, an impact test, and a buckling test. Electrical measurements were in good agreement with simulation results and these complex antenna structures have good flexural characteristics. The design of this antenna structure is extended to give a useful guide for sandwich panel manufacturers as well as antenna designers.

  • The Angle-of-Arrival (AOA) estimation in real time is one of core technologies for the real-time tracking system, such as a radar or a satellite. Although AOA estimation algorithms for various antenna types have been studied, most of them are for the single-shaped array antenna suitable to the specific frequency. In this paper, we propose the cascade AOA estimation algorithm for the combined array antenna with Uniform Rectangular Frame Array (URFA) and Uniform Circular Array (UCA), with the excellent performance for various frequencies. The proposed technique is consisted of Capon for roughly finding AOA groups with multiple signal AOAs and Beamspace Multiple Signal Classification (MUSIC) for estimating the detailed signal AOA in the AOA group, for the combined array antenna. In addition, we provide computer simulation results for verifying the estimation performance of the proposed algorithm.
