Abstract—

The need for the implementation of high-resolution modes, with seaborne targets identification for the Italian Navy, pushed to the extension of the Grifo Radar to high-resolution applications.With the new capability, making use of the Deramp On Receive technique, Grifo Radar can now perform Spot-SAR on ground patch as well as ISAR upon A/A and A/S tar ....etc

RADAR AND SYNTHETIC APERTURE RADAR BASICS
PRINCIPLES OF RADAR
HOW DOES RADAR WORK?
• RADAR = Radio Detection And Ranging
• Since radar pulses propagate at the speed of light, the difference to the “target” is proportional to the time it takes between the transmit event and reception of the radar echo
PRINCIPLES OF IMAGING RADAR
REAL APERTURE RADAR
• PRINCIPLES OF IMAGING RADAR
THE RADAR EQUATION
• The SNR is derived from the radar equation:

Radar Guns and Laser radar Guns


This is the age of speed. We can see people zipping down the highways at unimaginable speed. Long before the invention of radar guns in 1970's and laser speed guns in 1990's the police had a very tedious job in detecting those vehicles which where driven at over speed. The radar gun emits microwaves and works on the principle of radar where as the laser gun emits infrared rays and gives more accurate readings than the radar gun. The invention of the radar guns and the laser guns have proved to be a great ble ....etc

RADAR Radio Detection And Ranging

Radio Detection And Ranging ,in short RADAR relies on sending and receiving electromagnetic radiation, usually in the form of radio waves (see Radio) or microwaves. Electromagnetic radiation is energy that moves in waves at or near the speed of light. The characteristics of electromagnetic waves depend on their wavelength. Gamma rays and X rays have very short wavelengths.

Visible light is a tiny slice of the electromagnetic spectrum with wavelengths longer tha ....etc

Abstract : A study with the goal of contributing to the development of adaptive phased array radar techniques is presented. Adaptive phased array radar is concerned with modification by closed loop control of the radar in response to a change of radar environment such that performance is improved with respect to performance before modification. This study has been concerned with selection of a quantitative measure of radar system performance and relating this measure of performance to control of phased array radar parameters. Modeling of the g ....etc

Definition
Landmines are affecting the lives and livelihood of millions of people around the world. The video impulse ground penetrating radar system for detection for small and shallow buried objects has been developed. The hardware combines commercially available components with components specially developed or modified for being used in the system. The GPR system has been desired to measure accurately electromagnetic field backscattered from subsurface targets in order to allow identification of detected targets through the solution of the ....etc

Abstract:
Due to the threat of terrorism, today's enemy can be anyone and they can exist anywhere even in populated cities. Monitoring human activities in an urban environment is a difficult problem due walls, clutter, and other obstructions. This seminar discusses the development of a network of digital noise radars that operate simultaneously to track humans and non-human targets inside rooms and through walls. Each individual noise radar works by cross correlating the received signal with a time delayed replica of the transmit signal. A hi ....etc

MIMO RADAR SIGNAL PROCESSING:MIMO as a Distributed Radar System
ABSTRACT:

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar has been receiving increasing attention in recent years from researchers, practitioners, and funding agencies. MIMO radar is characterized by using multiple antennas to simultaneously transmit diverse (possibly linearly independent) waveforms and by utilizing multiple antennas to receive the reflected signals. Like MIMO communications, MIMO radar offers a new paradigm for signal processing research. MIMO radar possesses sig ....etc

Introduction

When a disaster occurs it is very important to grasp the situation as soon as possible. But it is very difficult to get the information from the ground because there are a lot of things which prevent us from getting such important data such as clouds and volcanic eruptions. While using an optical sensor, large amount of data is shut out by such barriers. In such cases, Synthetic Aperture Radar or SAR is a very useful means to collect data even if the observation area is covered with obstacles or an observation is made at night ....etc
