The National Weather Radar Testbed (NWRT) system is based on WSR-88D technology enhanced with the significant capability of a Phased Array Antenna. The agile beam capability provides a unique and powerful tool to focus weather radar asset on observation of severe weather phenomena including structures that lead to formation of these storms. The NWRT system has demonstrated the ability to provide weather data consistent with that from adjacent WSR systems at greatly reduced volume coverage time. Significant success has been reported in use of this tool for gathering and presenting specific, real-time storm-cell 3-D data to weather scientists and meteorologists for in-depth interpretation of these pencil-beam radar returns. Specific extensions to the conventional weather radar capabilities now in place include Beam Multiplexing (spatial filtering), Oversampling and Whitening (signal processing) and Transverse Wind Estimation (multi-beam). The latter capability has recently been added by activating the difference beam channels of the array and sequentially sampling and comparing these with the conventional sum-only mode. Under the auspices of a National Science Foundation, Major Research Instrument (NSF/MRI) grant, and in cooperation with the United States Navy, the NWRT is now being extended with an 8-channel digital receiver for simultaneous processing of sum, difference and ancillary beam returns. Expectations are high that application of multi-beam adaptation algorithms and other signal processing techniques using multiple channels will lead to improved detection and storm queuing techniques to greatly extend the forecast lead time for severe storms. Multi-channel capability also opens the NWRT for the possibility of testing Multi-Function radar system algorithms and operations. This paper will describe the attributes of the COTS, rf-system extensions and the specific steps being taken to baseline these changes to the current NWRT system performance.
国家气象雷达试验台(NWRT)系统基于WSR-88D技术,增强了相控阵天线的重要能力。敏捷波束能力提供了一种独特而强大的工具,可以将气象雷达资产集中在恶劣天气现象的观测上,包括导致这些风暴形成的结构。NWRT系统已证明能够在大大减少体积覆盖时间的情况下提供与相邻WSR系统一致的天气数据。据报道,该工具在收集和呈现特定的实时风暴细胞三维数据方面取得了重大成功,气象科学家和气象学家可以对这些铅笔束雷达回波进行深入解释。传统气象雷达功能的具体扩展包括波束多路复用(空间滤波)、过采样和白化(信号处理)和横向风估计(多波束)。后一种能力是最近通过激活阵列的不同波束通道和顺序采样并将其与传统的仅和模式进行比较而增加的。在国家科学基金会、主要研究仪器(NSF/MRI)的资助下,与美国海军合作,NWRT现在正在扩展一个8通道数字接收器,用于同时处理和、差和辅助波束返回。人们对多波束自适应算法和其他使用多信道的信号处理技术的应用寄予了很高的期望,这些技术将改进探测和风暴排队技术,从而大大延长对强风暴的预测提前时间。多通道能力也为NWRT提供了测试多功能雷达系统算法和操作的可能性。本文将描述COTS、rf系统扩展的属性,以及将这些变化基线化到当前NWRT系统性能的具体步骤。

Enhanced DOA visibility of correlated sources for multistatic shipborne surface wave radar 舰载多基地面波雷达相关源的DOA可见性增强

A modified array interpolation approach to correlated source localization is presented for the surface wave radar (SWR) that employs multiple uniform linear subarrays (ULSAs) mounted on different ships to compose a multistatic shipborne SWR receiving array. This approach that overcomes the main shortcomings of some existing interpolation techniques, comprises three stages: a first stage for preestimating direction-of-arrivals (DOAs) on an assumption that at least a single ULSA is available for correlated source localization, a second stage for specifying a union of nonoverlapping narrow subsectors as the interpolated sector to cover only the preestimates, and a third stage for reestimating DOAs with the virtual uniform linear array (VULA), in which we skip noise prewhitening and appropriately increase the amount of forward/backward spatial smoothing (FBSS) that plays a major role in lowering noise floor while decorrelating correlated sources. Monte Carlo simulations demonstrate the validity of our proposal.
针对面波雷达相关源定位问题,提出了一种改进的阵列插值方法,该方法采用安装在不同舰船上的多个均匀线性子阵列组成多静态舰载面波雷达接收阵列。这种方法克服了一些现有插值技术的主要缺点,包括三个阶段:第一阶段是在假设至少有一个ULSA可用于相关源定位的情况下预估到达方向(doa),第二阶段是指定非重叠窄子扇区的联合作为内插扇区,仅覆盖预估,第三阶段是使用虚拟均匀线性阵列(VULA)重新估计doa。其中,我们跳过噪声预白化,并适当增加前向/后向空间平滑(FBSS)的量,FBSS在降低噪声本底同时去相关相关源中起主要作用。蒙特卡洛仿真验证了该方法的有效性。

A novel transmitting wide DBF algorithm based on time-domain filter is presented in this paper. The mature FIR filter was used to form transmitting wideband digital beam in time domain. The signal with continuous phase cannot be transmitted by frequency-domain algorithm. The right beam direction in non-reference frequency point couldn't get by adaptive filter algorithm. Many flaws in traditional method can be overcome by the method in this article. Finally, the practicability and validity of the proposed algorithm were proved by computer simulation.

Derivation of the frequency mismatch probability in linear FMCW radar based on target distribution 基于目标分布的线性FMCW雷达频率失配概率的推导
Pub Date : 2009-05-04 DOI: 10.1109/RADAR.2009.4976968

In LFMCW (linear frequency modulated continuous wave) radar, there is a nonzero probability for mismatches to occur under certain conditions. This probability strongly depends on the modulation employed as well as on the distribution of targets in the radar's field of view, i.e. the application of the radar sensor. Hence to reduce mismatches in a given application, an effective approach is to carefully design the modulation used. Instead of utilizing extensive simulations, we derive the distribution of mismatches analytically, solely based on the modulation parameters and a given distribution of targets. Based on that mismatch distribution, an application-specific optimization of the modulation is feasible.
在LFMCW(线性调频连续波)雷达中,在一定条件下,存在非零的失配概率。这种概率很大程度上取决于所采用的调制以及目标在雷达视场中的分布,即雷达传感器的应用。因此,为了减少给定应用中的不匹配,一个有效的方法是仔细设计所使用的调制。而不是利用广泛的模拟,我们得到了不匹配的分布解析,仅基于调制参数和给定的目标分布。基于这种不匹配分布,调制的特定应用优化是可行的。

Pub Date : 2009-05-04 DOI: 10.1109/RADAR.2009.4977005
E. Pancera, T. Zwick, W. Wiesbeck
In this paper the time domain responses of UWB Radar signals from scattering targets are analyzed. In particular, the aim of this paper is to investigate the pulse distortion of UWB Radar signals by a scattering object, i.e. how does the scattered signal vary with respect to the Radar signal incident on the object itself. The investigation is performed analyzing the polarimetric responses of different targets (flat plate, sphere). The time domain description (impulse response and pulse preserving capability) of a generic scattering process is mathematically described. Then for verification and application, these prior defined quantities are experimentally measured for two particular targets, a flat plate and a sphere.

Analysis of the reliability of the double bounce scattering mechanism for detecting buildings in VHR SAR images VHR SAR图像中双弹跳散射机制检测建筑物的可靠性分析

The double bounce effect of buildings is an important characteristic in very high resolution (VHR) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images. It typically appears as a strong scattering mechanism caused by a corner reflector, which is made of the front wall of a building and its surrounding ground area. In order to exploit this feature effectively for automatic building detection and reconstruction techniques, empirical studies on real VHR SAR images need to investigate the stability of the double bounce mechanism with respect to changes in the viewing configuration and material properties. Thus, this paper addresses the analysis of the relation between the double bounce effect and the aspect angle of a building for two different ground materials, by analyzing two TerraSAR-X VHR spaceborne SAR images. Furthermore, we compare the empirical results with the simulations obtained by theoretical electromagnetic models. We show that if the buildings are surrounded by asphalt, the strength of the double bounce decreases significantly from 0 to 10 degrees aspect angle, while it decreases moderately for higher values of the aspect angle. Considering buildings which are surrounded by grass, the drop of the strength for low values of the aspect angle is less evident, but it is more constant on the full range of aspect angles.
建筑物的双重反射效应是超高分辨率合成孔径雷达(SAR)图像的一个重要特征。它通常表现为由建筑物前墙及其周围地面区域构成的角反射器引起的强散射机制。为了有效地利用这一特征进行自动建筑物检测和重建技术,需要在真实的VHR SAR图像上进行实证研究,研究双弹跳机制在观察结构和材料性质变化方面的稳定性。因此,本文通过对两幅TerraSAR-X VHR星载SAR图像的分析,分析了两种不同地面材料条件下建筑物的双弹跳效应与建筑物的纵横角之间的关系。此外,我们还将实验结果与理论电磁模型的模拟结果进行了比较。研究表明,当建筑物被沥青包围时,在0 ~ 10度的纵横角范围内,双弹跳强度显著降低,而在较大的纵横角范围内,双弹跳强度略有下降。考虑到被草包围的建筑,低纵横角值的强度下降不太明显,但在整个纵横角范围内强度下降更为恒定。

This paper describes the design and architectural composition of a radar system built on OFDM platform. The radar signal is generated digitally by forming an arbitrary-length vector of OFDM sub-carrier amplitudes and translating it in analog format via 1000 Ms/s D/A conversion. The resultant baseband signal has a bandwidth of 500 MHz, and variable number and composition of sub-carriers, which may be changed on a pulse-to-pulse basis. The signal is upconverted to 7.5 GHz carrier frequency and emitted via small-form horn antenna. The receiver includes 1 Gs/s A/D converter and processing is performed in frequency domain. The system is currently configured for short-range applications (3–5 m) and can be used as radar or communication unit without any changes to hardware and with very minimal changes to software. Experimental results from high-resolution range profile imaging and broadband data communications are presented and discussed.

This paper presents an overview of a service life extension program that is being applied to the continental US Long Range Radar (LRR) network. Initially the architecture of the system is presented and key components selected for upgrade are identified. In addition to hardware upgrades innovative signal processing algorithms have also been added. The LRR consists of 68 radars that are used for the joint purposes of air traffic control and surveillance. The upgraded radar consists of a solid state transmitter, a state-of-the-art receiver and signal data processor. With advanced signal processing algorithms, the upgraded radar system provides 200 nmi coverage in natural interference environment while minimizing the false alarms. The radar has also been upgraded to enhance weather detection performance.
