Abstract: An apparatus for non-coherently detecting slow-moving targets in high resolution sea clutter includes a binary detector for converting high resolution radar returns, produced in response to a radar pulse scan of a plurality of identical pulses, into corresponding binary outputs based on a comparison of range cell magnitudes with a detector threshold. A range extent filter converts these binary outputs into an output indicating the presence or absence of a cluster of the returns that are closely spaced in range, while a third, persistence integration stage determines target range extent persistence over a predetermined time period. A detector stage declares detection of a target based on a comparison of the output of the third stage with a selected threshold.

Abstract: A radar system and method for detecting targets using pulse-compressed signals is disclosed. In one application, the systems and methods can be used to detect one or more relatively small targets whose pulse-compressed signals are masked by the time-sidelobes of a larger target's return signal. The method includes an iterative, detect-and-subtract signal algorithm that processes the post-compressed signal to detect multiple targets. Specifically the processing algorithm operates on the post-compressed signal to identify a point spread function (PSF) that corresponds to the relatively large target. Once identified, the PSF corresponding to the largest target in the post-compressed signal is subtracted from the post-compressed signal to generate a residual signal. This residual signal, in turn, includes the PSFs for the other targets. This process of identifying and subtracting the PSF of the largest target in the residual signal is then repeated until all targets are detected.

The processing circuitry may select one of the return energy-ranked vectors for generation of a clutter-orthogonal transmit waveform. In some embodiments, the processing circuitry may select a clutter-orthogonal vector from the plurality of return energy-ranked vectors and may quantize the clutter-orthogonal vector for application to the phase modulator for generation of the clutter-orthogonal transmit waveform. The radar system may perform multiple correlations on sampled radar returns from the clutter orthogonal transmit waveform using a family of pseudo-orthogonal waveforms to detect a slow-moving target.

Abstract: A base station that monitors for radar signals may reassign the monitoring operation to one or more wireless mobile devices whenever channel load exceeds a first value.

In some embodiments the monitoring function may be assigned back to the base station if the channel load decreases below a second value.

The censored data and the covariance matrix estimate are used to compute adaptive coherence estimate values for the uncensored data for each Doppler band, and these values are compared with the respective thresholds to determine the presence or absence of the target signal.

Abstract: A moving radar generates a search mode synthetic aperture image of a patch from periodic pulse returns reflected from the patch. The patch is imaged from radar returns derived from two or more overlapping arrays. A strong scatterer is located within each array, then the data from each array is motion compensated with respect to the motion of the radar and the strong scatterer. The motion compensated results for each array are autofocused to derive a phase error for each array. Using the phase error for each array, a connected phase error estimate is computed, added to the phase error of each array to minimize the differences between phases in the overlap between arrays insuring that there is no or minimal phase discontinuity in the overlap region between arrays. Avoiding phase discontinuity yields a clear SAR image of the combination of arrays rendering the patch.

A method is described wherein a region is scanned with an ultra wideband radar, the scan information is combined in accordance with an expected trajectory to enhance the object signal to noise. Further features are described wherein the scan information is combined according to a family of trajectories. A trajectory yielding a potential object detection initiates a further scan combination step wherein the family of trajectories is further resolved.

Abstract: A radar transmits electromagnetic energy in pulse repetition intervals and receives reflections from objects in range gates including Doppler filters. The radar approves desirable ambiguous echoes and suppresses ambiguous echoes of no interest or that interfere with the radar's display. The radar frequency varies according to a staggered or wobbling pattern. The ambiguous echoes produce one pulse in the range gates within a predetermined number of periods. The Doppler filter works with an impulse function response that includes a small number of samples. The Doppler filter, during the predetermined number of periods, gives rise to independent samples from reflectors within the radar's unambiguous range. When the independent samples exceed the small number of samples, the radar approves the ambiguous echo. Otherwise, it is suppressed. In this way, ambiguous echoes are prevented from interfering with the reception or display of echoes. The suppression of asynchronous interferences can be made easier.

Abstract: A method according to an aspect of the invention is for filtering coherent multipulse radar, sonar or lidar returns. The method comprises the steps of separating the returns into mutually orthogonal I & Q components, performing wavelet processing on the I and Q components to generate an I & Q wavelet filter output.

An inverse wavelet filtering function is performed on the compressed wavelet filter outputs, to thereby generate edited coherent I & Q components. Doppler filtering, is performed on the edited coherent I and Q components to thereby generate frequency-domain target data in which the minimum discernible target velocity is improved.

Abstract: Radar systems use time delay measurements between a transmitted signal and its echo to calculate range to a target. Ranges that change with time cause a Doppler offset in phase and frequency of the echo. Consequently, the closing velocity between target and radar can be measured by measuring the Doppler offset of the echo. The closing velocity is also known as radial velocity, or line-of-sight velocity. Doppler frequency is measured in a pulse-Doppler radar as a linear phase shift over a set of radar pulses during some Coherent Processing Interval (CPI). An Interferometric Moving Target Indicator (MTI) radar can be used to measure the tangential velocity component of a moving target. Multiple baselines, along with the conventional radial velocity measurement, allow estimating the true 3-D velocity of a target.
