Scattering center extraction schemes for radar cross section reduction of large complex targets, like warships, was developed, which are an 1-D radar image method(range profile), and a direct analysis based on an object precision method. The analysis result of partial dihedral model shows that the presented direct analysis method is more efficient than the 1-D radar image method for scattering center extraction of interested targets, in terms of radar cross section reduction design, not signal processing. In order to verify the accuracy of the direct analysis method, a scattering center analysis of an naval weapon system was carried out, and the result was coincident with that of another well-known RCS analysis program. Finally, an analysis result of RCS and its scattering center of an 120m class warship-like model presented that the direct analysis method can be an efficient and powerful tools for radar cross section reduction of large complex targets.

본 논문에서는 다중 편파(polarimetry) 데이터를 이용한 산란점(scattering center) 추출 알고리즘을 소개하고자 한다. 산란파 계산을 위해 상용 툴인 VIRAF(virtual aircraft framework)의 물리 광학법(Physical Optics: PO)/물리광학 회절이론(Physical Theory of Diffraction: PTD)을 사용하여 표적 표면과 모서리에 의한 산란을 각각 계산하였다. 또한, 단위 변환(unitary transformation)을 이용하여 선형 기저(linear basis) 기반 4-채널 데이터를 수평/수직-좌원형 기저(horizontal/vertical-circular basis) 2-채널 데이터로 변환하였고, 그 결과 데이터를 코히런트하게 압축할 수 있었다. 스펙트럼 추정 방법(spectral estimation technique)에 하나인 2차원 RELAX 알고리즘을 사용하여 산란점(scattering center) 추출을 하였고, 편파 방향과 관측각도 변화에 따른 산란현상을 각각 분석하였다.

본 논문에서는 표적에 의해서 산란된 산란파에 대한 2차원 산란점 추출 및 2차원 ISAR(Inverse SAR) 영상 형성에 대해서 기술하였다. 표적 에 대 한 2차원 산란점과 ISAR 영상을 획득하는 방법에는 일반적으로 2-D IFFT(Inverse Fast Fourier Transform)가 널리 사용되고 있다. 그러나 이는 영상의 해상도 면에서 질이 떨이진다는 단점이 있다. 이러한 퓨리에 변환을 바탕으로 한 방법의 단점을 보완하기 위해서 여러 가지 고해상도 신호처리의 방법이 개발되어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 2차원 산란점 추출 및 ISAR 영상을 형성하기 위해서 2-D MEMP 알고리즘과 2-D ESPRIT 알고리즘에 대해서 기술하고 있다. 이러한 각 알고리즘에 대한 성능을 나타내기 위해서 이상적인 점 산란체와 F-18 전투기에 대한 산란파를 이용하여 2차원 산란점을 예측하고 2차원 ISAR 영상을 획득하였다.

In this study, an electron-scattering device was fabricated to practically use the ultra-high dose rate electron beams for the FLASH preclinical research in Dongnam Institute of Radiological and Medical Sciences. The Dongnam Institute of Radiological and Medical Sciences has been involved in the investigation of linear accelerators for preclinical research and has recently implemented FLASH electron beams. To determine the geometry of the scattering device for the FLASH preclinical research with a 6-MeV linear accelerator, the Monte Carlo N-particle transport code was exploited. By employing the fabricated scattering device, the off-axis and depth dose distributions were measured with radiochromic films. The generated mean energy of electron beams via the scattering device was 4.3 MeV, and the symmetry and flatness of the off-axis dose distribution were 0.11% and 2.33%, respectively. Finally, the doses per pulse were obtained as a function of the source to surface distance (SSD); the measured dose per pulse varied from 4.0 to 0.2 Gy/pulse at an SSD range of 20-90 cm. At an SSD of 30 cm with a 100-Hz repetition rate, the dose rate was 180 Gy/s, which is sufficient for the preclinical FLASH studies.

Objectives: This study is designed to analyze the penetration performance into ceiling materials containing asbestos of scattering prevention agents and investigate the change in penetration depth and viscosity according to the dilution rate of anti-scattering agents diluted with distilled water. Methods: Five different types of scattering prevention agents were spread on plate-type asbestos ceiling materials. The penetration depth of each coated ceiling material was measured by energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analysis, based on X-ray fluorescence (XRF) results of the non-coated ceiling materials. Test equipment installed the ceiling materials and 60 minutes were collected at a flow rate of $10{\ell}/min$ at a filter of 25 mm. Results: An EDS analysis of the cross-section of ceiling materials constructed with a scattering prevention agent revealed that potassium is detected in the process of penetrating hardener solidification and this element could be an indicator for infiltration. When anti-scattering agents with different viscosities were constructed and the penetration depth was analyzed by potassium detection assessment using EDS, the depth results with viscosities of 5.0, 2.5, and 1.9 cP were 98.5, 103, and $147{\mu}m$, respectively. Penetration performance improved with decrease in viscosity. Conclusions: For asbestos ceiling materials, it is concluded that a higher dilution rate of the scattering prevention agent leads to lower viscosity, and hence a deeper penetration depth from $156{\mu}m$ to 3 mm. The asbestos anti-scattering properties according to the penetration depth will be confirmed through further study.

We discuss the problems of scattering in this framework, and show that the applied method is very useful in the investigation of the effect of the resonance in the observed scattering cross sections. In this study, not only the scattering cross sections but also the decomposition of the scattering cross sections was computed for the ${\alpha}-{\alpha}$ system. To obtain the decomposition of scattering cross sections into resonance and residual continuum terms, the complex scaled orthogonality condition model and the extended completeness relation are used. Applying the present method to the ${\alpha}-{\alpha}$ and ${\alpha}-n$ systems, we obtained good reproduction of the observed phase shifts and cross sections. The decomposition into resonance and continuum terms makes clear that resonance contributions are dominant but continuum terms and their interference are not negligible. To understand the behavior of observed phase shifts and the shape of the cross sections, both resonance and continuum terms are calculated.

We propose a two-dimensional (2D) scattering-center-extraction (SCE) method using sparse recovery based on the compressive-sensing theory, even with data missing from the received radar cross-section (RCS) dataset. First, using the proposed method, we generate a 2D grid via adaptive discretization that has a considerably smaller size than a fully sampled fine grid. Subsequently, the coarse estimation of 2D scattering centers is performed using both the method of iteratively reweighted least square and a general peak-finding algorithm. Finally, the fine estimation of 2D scattering centers is performed using the orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) procedure from an adaptively sampled Fourier dictionary. The measured RCS data, as well as simulation data using the point-scatterer model, are used to evaluate the 2D SCE accuracy of the proposed method. The results indicate that the proposed method can achieve higher SCE accuracy for an incomplete RCS dataset with missing data than that achieved by the conventional OMP, basis pursuit, smoothed L0, and existing discrete spectral estimation techniques.

Experimental data have been obtained on the neutron elastic scattering cross sections for 55, 65 and 75 MeV neutrons, and non-elastic scattering cross sections for 40 to 80 MeV neutrons using the $^7Li(p,n)$ neutron source at TIARA of Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute and the TOF method. Data were obtained for C, Si, Fe, Zr, and Pb of natural elements. Elastic scattering data were obtained for 25 laboratory angles between 2.6 and 53.0 that clarified the angular distributions and angle integrated values. The data obtained were compared favorably with recent LA150 data library.

We propose a characterization method for the scattering property of microspheres using spectroscopic optical coherence tomography (OCT). To prove the effectiveness of the proposed method, we prepare solutions of different concentrations using microspheres ranging from 28 to 2300 nm in diameter. Time-frequency analysis is performed on the measured interference spectrum of each solution, and the resulting spectroscopic information is converted into histograms for centroid wavelengths. The histograms present a very sensitive response to changes in the concentration and size of microspheres. We classify them into three categories according to their characteristics. When the histogram of each category is replaced with the corresponding calculated value of the scattering coefficient, each category is mapped to a different scattering-coefficient region. It is expected that the proposed method could be used to investigate the optical characteristics of a biological sample from OCT images, which would be helpful for optical diagnostic and therapeutic applications.
