文摘A microwave photonic prototype for concurrent radar detection and spectrum sensing is proposed.A direct digital synthesizer and an analog electronic circuit are integrated to generate an intermediate frequency(IF)linearly frequency-modulated(LFM)signal ranging from 2.5 to 9.5 GHz,with an instantaneous bandwidth of 1 GHz.The IF LFM signal is converted to the optical domain via an intensity modulator and filtered by a fiber Bragg grating to generate two second-order sidebands.The two sidebands beat each other to generate a frequency-and-bandwidth-quadrupled LFM signal.By changing the center frequency of the IF LFM signal,the radar function can be operated within 8 to 40 GHz.One second-order sideband works in conjunction with the stimulated Brillouin scattering gain spectrum for microwave frequency measurement,providing an instantaneous measurement bandwidth of 2 GHz and a frequency measurement range from 0 to 40 GHz.The prototype is demonstrated to be capable of achieving a range resolution of 3.75 cm,a range error of less than ±2 cm,a radial velocity error within ±1 cm∕s,delivering clear imaging of multiple small targets,and maintaining a frequency measurement error of less than ±7 MHz and a frequency resolution of better than 20 MHz.

文摘Synthetic aperture radar(SAR)aboard SEASAT was first launched in 1978.At the beginning of the 21st century,the Chinese remote sensing community recognized the urgent need to develop domestic SAR capabilities.Unlike scatterometers and al-timeters,space-borne SAR offers high-resolution images of the ocean,regardless of weather conditions or time of day.SAR imagery provides rich information about the sea surface,capturing complicated dynamic processes in the upper layers of the ocean,particular-ly in relation to tropical cyclones.Over the past four decades,the advantages of SAR have been increasingly recognized,leading to notable marine applications,especially in the development of algorithms for retrieving wind and wave data from SAR images.This study reviews the history,progress,and future outlook of SAR-based monitoring of sea surface wind and waves.In particular,the ap-plicability of various SAR wind and wave algorithms is systematically investigated,with a particular focus on their performance un-der extreme sea conditions.

文摘The meteor radar can detect the zenith angle,azimuth,radial velocity,and altitude of meteor trails so that one can invert the wind profiles in the mesosphere and low thermosphere(MLT)region,based on the Interferometric and Doppler techniques.In this paper,the horizontal wind field,gravity wave(GW)disturbance variance,and GW fluxes are analyzed through the meteor radar observation from 2012−2022,at Mohe(53.5°N,122.4°E)and Zuoling(30.5°N,114.6°E)stations of the(Chinese)Meridian Project.The Lomb−Scargle periodogram method has been utilized to analyze the periodic variations for time series with observational data gaps.The results show that the zonal winds at both stations are eastward dominated,while the meridional winds are southward dominated.The variance of GW disturbances in the zonal and meridional directions increases gradually with height,and there is a strong pattern of annual variation.The zonal momentum flux of GW changes little with height,showing weak annual variation.The meridional GW flux varies gradually from northward to southward with height,and the annual periodicity is stronger.For both stations,the maximum values of zonal and meridional wind occur close to the peak heights of GW flux,with opposite directions.This observational evidence is consistent with the filtering theory.The horizontal wind velocity,GW flux,and disturbance variance of the GW at Mohe are overall smaller than those at Zuoling,indicating weaker activities in the MLT at Mohe.The power spectral density(PSD)calculated by the Lomb−Scargle periodogram shows that there are 12-month period and 6-month period in horizontal wind field,GW disturbance variance and GW flux at both stations,and especially there is also a 4-month cycle in the disturbance variance.The PSD of the 12-month and 6-month cycles exhibits maximum values below 88 km and above 94 km.

文摘Accurate knowledge of mesospheric winds and waves is essential for studying the dynamics and climate in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere(MLT)region.In this study,we conduct a comparative analysis of the mesosphere tidal results obtained from two adjacent meteor radars at low latitudes in Kunming,China,from November 2013 to December 2014.These two radars operate at different frequencies of 37.5 MHz and 53.1 MHz,respectively.However,overall good agreement is observed between the two radars in terms of horizontal winds and tide observations.The results show that the dominant tidal waves of the zonal and meridional winds are diurnal and semidiurnal tides.Moreover,we conduct an exhaustive statistical analysis to compare the tidal amplitudes and vertical wavelengths recorded by the dual radar systems,which reveals a high degree of alignment in tidal dynamics.The investigation includes variances and covariances of tidal amplitudes,which demonstrate remarkable consistency across measurements from both radars.This finding highlights clear uniformity in the mesospheric tidal patterns observed at low latitudes by the two neighboring meteor radars.Results of the comparative analysis specifically underscore the significant correlation in vertical wavelength measurements,validating the robustness of radar observations for tidal research.

文摘Nonperiodic interrupted sampling repeater jamming(ISRJ)against inverse synthetic aperture radar(ISAR)can obtain two-dimensional blanket jamming performance by joint fast and slow time domain interrupted modulation,which is obviously dif-ferent from the conventional multi-false-target deception jam-ming.In this paper,a suppression method against this kind of novel jamming is proposed based on inter-pulse energy function and compressed sensing theory.By utilizing the discontinuous property of the jamming in slow time domain,the unjammed pulse is separated using the intra-pulse energy function diffe-rence.Based on this,the two-dimensional orthogonal matching pursuit(2D-OMP)algorithm is proposed.Further,it is proposed to reconstruct the ISAR image with the obtained unjammed pulse sequence.The validity of the proposed method is demon-strated via the Yake-42 plane data simulations.
文摘Cognitive bias,stemming from electronic measurement error and variability in human perception,exists in cognitive electronic warfare and affects the outcomes of conflicts.In this paper,the dynamic game approach is employed to develop a model for cognitive bias induced by incomplete information and measurement errors in cognitive radar countermeasures.The payoffs for both parties are calculated using the radar's anti-jamming strategy matrix A and the jammer's jamming strategy matrix B.With perfect Bayesian equilibrium,a dynamic radar countermeasure model is established,and the impact of cognitive bias is analyzed.Drawing inspiration from the cognitive bias analysis method used in stock market trading,a cognitive bias model for cognitive radar countermeasures is introduced,and its correctness is mathematically proved.A gaming scenario involving the AN/SPY-1 radar and a smart jammer is set up to analyze the influence of cognitive bias on game outcomes.Simulation results validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

文摘Automotive radar has emerged as a critical component in Advanced Driver Assistance Systems(ADAS)and autonomous driving,enabling robust environmental perception through precise range-Doppler and angular measurements.It plays a pivotal role in enhancing road safety by supporting accurate detection and localization of surrounding objects.However,real-world deployment of automotive radar faces significant challenges,including mutual interference among radar units and dense clutter due to multiple dynamic targets,which demand advanced signal processing solutions beyond conventional methodologies.This paper presents a comprehensive review of traditional signal processing techniques and recent advancements specifically designed to address contemporary operational challenges in automotive radar.Emphasis is placed on direction-of-arrival(DoA)estimation algorithms such as Bartlett beamforming,Minimum Variance Distortionless Response(MVDR),Multiple Signal Classification(MUSIC),and Estimation of Signal Parameters via Rotational Invariance Techniques(ESPRIT).Among these,ESPRIT offers superior resolution for multi-target scenarios with reduced computational complexity compared to MUSIC,making it particularly advantageous for real-time applications.Furthermore,the study evaluates state-of-the-art tracking algorithms,including the Kalman Filter(KF),Extended KF(EKF),Unscented KF,and Bayesian filter.EKF is especially suitable for radar systems due to its capability to linearize nonlinear measurement models.The integration of machine learning approaches for target detection and classification is also discussed,highlighting the trade-off between the simplicity of implementation in K-Nearest Neighbors(KNN)and the enhanced accuracy provided by Support Vector Machines(SVM).A brief overview of benchmark radar datasets,performance metrics,and relevant standards is included to support future research.The paper concludes by outlining ongoing challenges and identifying promising research directions in automotive radar signal processing,particularly in the context of increasingly complex traffic scenarios and autonomous navigation systems.

文摘In September 2020,a pioneering observational network of three X-band phased-array radars(XPARs)was established in Xiamen,a subtropical coastal and densely populated city in southeastern China.Statistically,this study demonstrated that the XPAR network outperforms single S-band radar in revealing the warm-season convective storms in Xiamen in a fine-scale manner.The findings revealed that convective activity in Xiamen is most frequent in the central and northern mountainous regions,with lower frequency observed in the southern coastal areas.The diurnal pattern of convection occurrence exhibited a unimodal distribution,with a peak in the afternoon.The frequent occurrence of convective storms correlates well in both time and space with the active terrain uplift that occurs when the prevailing winds encounter mountainous areas.Notably,September stands apart with a bimodal diurnal pattern,featuring a prominent afternoon peak and a significant secondary peak before midnight.Further examination of dense rain gauge data in Xiamen indicates that high-frequency areas of short-duration heavy rainfall largely coincide with regions of active convective storms,except for a unique rainfall hotspot in southern Xiamen,where moderate convection frequency is accompanied by substantial rainfall.This anomalous rainfall,predominantly nocturnal,appears less influenced by terrain uplift and exhibits higher precipitation efficiency than daytime rainfall.These preliminary findings offer insights into the characteristics of convection occurrence in Xiamen's subtropical coastal environment and hold promise for enhancing the accuracy of convection and precipitation forecasts in similar environments.

文摘Existing through-wall human activity recognition methods often rely on Doppler information or reflective signal characteristics of the human body.However,static individuals,lacking prominent motion features,do not generate Doppler information.Moreover,radar signals experience significant attenuation due to absorption and scattering effects as they penetrate walls,limiting recognition performance.To address these challenges,this study proposes a novel through-wall human activity recognition method based on MIMO radar.Utilizing a MIMO radar operating at 1–2 GHz,we capture activity data of individuals through walls and process it into range-angle maps to represent activity features.To tackle the issue of minimal variation in reflection areas caused by static individuals,a multi-scale activity feature extraction module is designed,capable of extracting effective features from radar signals across multiple scales.Simultaneously,a temporal attention mechanism is employed to extract keyframe information from sequential signals,focusing on critical moments of activity.Furthermore,this study introduces an activity recognition network based on a Deformable Transformer,which efficiently extracts both global and local features from radar signals,delivering precise human posture and activity sequences.In experimental scenarios involving 24 cm-thick brick walls,the proposed method achieves an impressive 97.1%accuracy in activity recognition classification.

文摘This paper proposes an integrated multi-stage framework to enhance frequency modulated continuous wave(FMCW)automotive radar performance under high noise and interference.The four-stage pipeline is applied consecutively:(i)an improved independent component analysis(ICA)blindly separates the two-channel echoes,isolating target and interference components;(ii)a recursive least-squares(RLS)filter compensates amplitude-and phase-mismatches,restoring signal fidelity;(iii)variational mode decomposition(VMD)followed by the Hilbert-Huang Transform(HHT)extracts noise-free intrinsic mode functions(IMFs)and sharpens their time-frequency signatures;and(iv)HHT-based beat-frequency estimation reconstructs a clean echo and delivers accurate range information.Finally,key IMFs are reconstructed into a clean signal,and a beat-frequency estimation via HHT confirms accurate distance results,closely aligning with theoretical predictions.On synthetic data with an input signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)of 12.7 dB,the pipeline delivers a 7.6 dB SNR gain,yields a mean-squared error of 0.25 m2,and achieves a range root-mean-square error(Range-RMSE)of 0.50 m.Empirical evaluations demonstrate that this enhanced ICA and VMD/HHT scheme effectively restores the fundamental echo signature,providing a robust approach for advanced driver assistance systems(ADAS).

文摘This study presents finely resolved radar signatures of multiple cyclonic vortices associated with an EF2 tornadic supercell that occurred in Guangzhou on 16 June 2022 and discusses how the mesocyclone formed on the lee side of mountain.A nearby X-band phased-array radar provides evidence that the mesocyclone was shallow,with a depth generally confined to less than 3 km.The mesocyclonic feature was observed to initiate from near-ground level,driven by the interaction between intensifying cold pool surges and shallow lee-side ambient flows.It was first recognized shortly after the presence of near-ground cyclonic convergence signatures over the leading edges of cold pool outflows.Over the subsequent 17 min,the mesocyclone developed upward,reaching a maximum height of 3 km,and produced a tornado 8min later.Nearly coinciding with the time of tornadogenesis,a noticeable separation of the low-level tornado cyclone from the midlevel mesocyclone was observed.This shift in the vertically oriented vortex tube was likely caused by modifications to the low-level flow due to the complex hilly terrain or by occlusions associated with rear-flank downdrafts.After tornadogenesis,high-resolution X-PAR observations revealed that the lowest-level mesocyclonic signature contracted into a gate-to-gate tornadic vortex signature(TVS)at the tip of hook echoes.Compared to conventional S-band operational weather radars,rapid-scan X-PAR observations indicate that a core diameter threshold of 1.5–2 km could be employed to identify a cyclonically sheared radial velocity couplet as a TVS,potentially extending the lead time for Doppler-based tornado warnings.

文摘The dwell scheduling problem for a multifunctional radar system is led to the formation of corresponding optimiza-tion problem.In order to solve the resulting optimization prob-lem,the dwell scheduling process in a scheduling interval(SI)is formulated as a Markov decision process(MDP),where the state,action,and reward are specified for this dwell scheduling problem.Specially,the action is defined as scheduling the task on the left side,right side or in the middle of the radar idle time-line,which reduces the action space effectively and accelerates the convergence of the training.Through the above process,a model-free reinforcement learning framework is established.Then,an adaptive dwell scheduling method based on Q-learn-ing is proposed,where the converged Q value table after train-ing is utilized to instruct the scheduling process.Simulation results demonstrate that compared with existing dwell schedul-ing algorithms,the proposed one can achieve better scheduling performance considering the urgency criterion,the importance criterion and the desired execution time criterion comprehen-sively.The average running time shows the proposed algorithm has real-time performance.

文摘Accurate estimation of rockfall trajectories is essential for mitigation of rockfall hazards.Nowadays,Doppler radar technologies can measure rockfall trajectories with centimeter resolution.Calibrating a numerical model to fit these measured trajectories,i.e.back analysis,often involves manual trial-anderror processes and subjective goodness-of-fit criteria.Here,we propose a framework that uses the chi-square statistic to quantify the misfit between modeled and measured rockfall trajectories.The framework can also quantify the uncertainty bounds on the best-fit model parameters.The approach is validated using field data from an Australian copper mine under two scenarios.(1)We perform an unconstrained back-analysis where the initial position and velocity of the rock,in addition to the coefficients of restitution(COR),are free variables.This scenario yields a normal COR Rn?0.866±0.109 and tangential COR R_(t)=0.29±0.151 with 68%confidence.(2)We perform a constrained back-analysis using predetermined initial position and velocity of the rock,which further constrains Rn to 0.8±0.014 and Rt to 0.39±0.065.Both scenarios show a higher uncertainty in Rt than in Rn.We also demonstrate the adaptability of the back-analysis framework to two-dimensional(2D)rockfall modeling using the same data.To the best of our knowledge,this is the first quantitative goodness-of-fit metric for trajectorybased rockfall back analysis that supports the estimation of inherent uncertainty.The simplicity of the metric lends itself to robust model optimization of rockfall back-analysis and can be adapted to other model assumptions(e.g.rigid-body mechanics)and metrics(e.g.velocity or energy).

文摘Earth-based deep space radar studies celestial bodies by both transmitting and receiving radio waves,whereas radio telescopes only work passively.On the operational level,radar missions use only short observation times,which leaves a large portion of the time available for astronomical observations.However,the design principles used for radar and radio telescopes differ.Technical challenges are involved in making the instruments required to meet the requirements of these two applications simultaneously.In this study,we have attempted to tune a deep space radar system for use in radio astronomical applications and conducted a successful pulsar observation,thus demonstrating the feasibility of using radar systems,particularly distributed deep space radar,to perform astronomical research.Additionally,given the limited astronomical capacity available within the observed frequency range,this system has the potential to contribute to the long-term monitoring of specific radio sources.This work represents the first successful attempt to use an Earth-based deep space radar system to perform radio astronomy in China.We also discuss the challenges of tuning a built radar system for astronomical observation applications and propose recommendations for the design of future large-scale distributed deep space radar systems with innate astronomical capabilities.

文摘To verify the detection capability of X-band dual-polarization phased-array radar for forest fires,this paper utilizes X-band dual-polarization phased-array radar data,Himawari-8 satellite data,combined with ground meteorological automatic station data.A case study of a forest fire in Ao Feng Mountain on February 19,2021,was conducted to comparatively analyze the monitoring results from these two remote sensing methods.The results show that both methods exhibit significant features associated with the forest fire process observed and are effective modern methods of forest fire monitoring.The Himawari-8 satellite identified the fire point at 07:10(LST;LST=UTC+8)with subsequent observations every 10 minutes until 10:00,nearly two hours before the fire was fully extinguished.Compared with the satellite,the Xband dual polarization phased array radar detectedthe fire 14 minutes earlier,with an improved temporal resolution of one minute,and was not affected by cloud cover.In the triggering stage,vigorous stage,sustained burning stage,and extinguishing stage of the forest fire,radar characteristic factors including reflectivity(Z),differential reflectivity(ZDR),and correlation coefficient(CC)showed strong correlations with the fire progression.The radar monitoring results were continuous,complete,and precise.In summary,the X-band dual-polarization phased-array radar offers more detailed detection information,shorter detection time interval,and higher detection spatial accuracy.It presents a promising new method for forest fire detection,providing crucial guidance for on-site rescue operations,particularly for small-scale fire events.
