The estimation filter in radar systems must track targets' position within low tracking error. In the Multi-Function Radar(MFR), ${\alpha}-{\beta}$ filter and Kalman filter are widely used to track single or multiple targets. However, due to target maneuvering, these filters may not reduce tracking error, therefore, may lost target tracks. In this paper, a target tracking filter based on particle filtering algorithm is proposed for the MFR. The advantage of this method is that it can track targets within low tracking error while targets maneuver and reduce impoverishment of particles by the proposed resampling method. From the simulation results, the improved tracking performance is obtained by the proposed filtering algorithm.

The automotive environment presents to the FMCW radar sensor a multitude of moving and fixed targets and the sensor must detect and track only the targets which may pose a threat of collision or passengers accident. The sensor must function accurately in the presence of background echoes generated by moving and fixed targets, ground reflections, atmospheric noises, including rains, fog, and, snow and noise generated within the receiver. False detection of the desired target in this environment may issue false alarms. That may be dangerous to the passenger and the vehicle. A high false alarm rate is totally unacceptable. The false alarm mechanism consists of noise peaks, crossing the threshold and the undesired response of the system to off lane targets which are not potentially hazardous to the radar equipped vehicle. This paper presents an improve technique safety performance for driver-less operation using FMCW radar sensors.

The dynamic information of radar and automatic identification system (AIS) for targets obtained from the traffic vessels operating in the north outer harbor and surrounding waters of Busan port, Korea. The target information was analyzed to investigate the potential collision risk resulting from the invalid true heading (HDT) information of AIS and the integration ambiguity in the graphic presentation of both tracked data sets for two systems. An integrated display system (IDS) for supporting the navigator of offshore fishing vessels was also developed to find possible maneuvering solutions for collision avoidance by comparing radar data with AIS data in real-time at sea. Consequently, the multiple functions of IDS can provide additional information that is potentially valuable for taking action to avoid the collision in offshore fishing vessels. However, the integration criteria of radar and AIS targets in the IDS must be carefully established to eliminate the fusion ambiguity in the graphic presentation of both AIS and radar symbols such as the one or two physical targets which are very close to each other.

능동위상배열레이다(AESA radar; active electronically scanned array radar)는 전자적으로 빔을 조향함으로써 빔조향 시간이 비약적으로 빨라져 기존의 기계식 빔조향 레이다에 비해 높은 추적 정확도를 갖는 다표적 처리 능력이 크게 증대되었다. 본 논문은 AESA 레이다의 다표적 상황에서 추적 표적을 효율적으로 관리하는 방안에 관한 것으로, 표적의 우선순위에 따라 표적을 전시(display)표적과 비전시 표적으로 나누고, 전시 표적은 보장하는 추적 정확도의 수준에 따라 최고우선순위, 고우선순위, 상황인식 표적으로 나눈다. 또한 표적의 우선순위를 판단할 수 있는 규칙을 제안하고, 동시운용모드를 포함한 공대공 모드 임무간 추적 표적 관리에 대해 제안하였다. 제안된 방식은 항공기 탑재 AESA 레이다에 적용하여 SIL (system integration lab) 환경에서 검증하였다.

도착시간(Time of arrival : TOA)을 이용한 삼변측량법은 레이다 시스템에서 단일목표물의 위치를 추정할 때 일반적으로 사용되는 기법으로 다중 목표물의 경우에는 각 목표물에 대응되는 측정치를 구별할 수가 없으므로 활용이 어려운 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 측정치와 목표물 간 관계의 모호성을 없애고자 최근 레이다 분야에서 활발히 연구되고 있는 마이크로 도플러를 통해 각 목표물의 마이크로 모션을 측정하여 각 목표물의 측정치를 구별하는데 활용하였고, 구별된 측정치로 각 목표물에 대해 삼변측량법을 적용할 수 있게 하였다. 목표물은 모탄에서 분리되는 자탄을 고려하였으며 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 제안한 알고리즘을 검증하였다.

시간 영역에서 펄스 레이다 신호는 송신 펄스가 존재하는 구간과 표적으로부터 반사된 수신 신호가 존재하는 구간으로 구분할 수 있으며, 수신 신호 성분은 송신 펄스에 비해 크기가 매우 작고, 표적으로 부터 반사된 성분을 제외하고는 잡음으로 구성되어 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 성질을 이용하여 잡음 전력에 대한 불확실성이 존재하는 환경에서 에너지 검파를 이용하여 레이다 신호를 검출하는 방안을 제시하고자 한다.

This paper considers the ability of counting and positioning multi-targets by using a mobile UWB radar device. After a background subtraction process, distinguishing between clutters and human body signals, the position of targets will be computed using weighted Gaussian mixture methods. While computer vision offers many advantages, it has limited performance in poor visibility conditions (e.g., at night, haze, fog or smoke). UWB radar can provide a complementary technology for detecting and tracking humans, particularly in poor visibility or through-wall conditions. As we know, for 2D measurement, one method is the use of at least two receiver antennas. Another method is the use of one mobile radar receiver. This paper tried to investigate the position detection of the stationary human body using the movement of one UWB radar module.

This paper proposes a systematic method for estimating detection performances of a frequency-modulated continuous wave radar using electromagnetic simulations. The proposed systematic method includes a radar system simulator that can obtain range-Doppler images using the electromagnetic (EM) simulations in conjunction with a test setup employed for performance evaluation of multiple targets at different velocities in a traffic environment. This method is then applied for optimizing the half-power beamwidths of the antenna array using an evaluation metric defined to improve the detection strengths for the multiple targets. The optimized antenna has vertical and horizontal half-power beam widths of $10^{\circ}$ and $60^{\circ}$, respectively. The results confirm that that the proposed systematic method is suitable to improve the radar detection performance with the enhanced radar-Doppler images.

The virtual target signal generator was developed to verify the shipborne tracking radar performance. It was used to DRFM(Digital RF Memory) method to generate the virtual moving targets. The target signal includes Doppler shift and RCS according to the target motion. And the signal generator can make jamming signal and clutter to test shipborne radar performance at real environmental condition. This paper described the functional diagram and the hardware configuration items to meet the test requirements for the tracking radar. And it showed the critical design points for the sub-systems. The signal generator which was developed in this paper shared the operational information of the radar with the radar command and control part. To test the frequency agility of the radar, it had the local oscillator which could do high speed frequency switching according to radar information. By communicating between the signal generator and the radar command and control part, the local oscillator of signal generator could be controlled every pulse. It reduced the instantaneous bandwidth of signal generator and minimized the spurious. So it lowered the probability of generating wrong targets.

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.
