Sample-Starved Wavefront Adaptive Sensing and GLRT for MTI Radar

Conference Proceedings of the IEEE Radar Conference · January 1, 2024 Moving target indicator (MTI) radars can suffer signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) losses due to: 1) the use of heavy non-adaptive tapers, and/or 2) poor estimation of space-time adaptive weight vectors. For ground-based radars, non-adaptive temporal and spatial ... Full text Cite

Waveform Optimization for Channel Matrix-Based Cognitive Radar/Sonar

Conference Proceedings of the IEEE Radar Conference · January 1, 2024 Cognitive radar systems, driven by adaptive wave-form design, enhance target detection and tracking in complex environments. In the context of channel matrix-based cognitive radar, the asymptotic distribution of the generalized likelihood ratio test (GLRT) ... Full text Cite

Delay-Doppler Parameter Estimation for DFRC-OTFS Using 2D Root-MUSIC

Conference Proceedings of the IEEE Radar Conference · January 1, 2024 Orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) is a modulation scheme based on transmitting information symbols over ideal pulse-Doppler radar signals. As a result, the pilot component of an OTFS transmitted signal can be designed to take the form of a desired pul ... Full text Cite
