65 Airborne Look-Down Doppler Radar Tracking of Hovering Helicopters using Rotor Features US11423590 2006-06-12 US20070285303A1 2007-12-13 Bernard P. Radza; Joseph Henning; Sunny Ali; John Mincer; Randal Walters
A system and method is presented for detecting and classifying slow-moving and hovering helicopters from a missile's took-down Doppler radar that is compatible with the existing base of Doppler radars. This approach uses definable attributes of a helicopter rotor assembly and its extended Doppler rotor return to differentiate “rotor samples” from other samples (steps 123, 125), extract features such as bandwidth, activity, angle, and shape from the rotor samples (step 127), and classify a potential target as a helicopter or other based on the extracted rotor features and the known attributes of the helicopter rotor assembly (step 129). A target report including a classification target, range, range-rate, and angle of the extended rotor return is suitably passed to a tracking processor (step 121).
66 System and method for detecting and estimating the direction of near-stationary targets in monostatic clutter using phase information US10116438 2002-04-04 US20030189512A1 2003-10-09 Hai-Wai Chen; Harry A. Schmitt; George T. David; Dennis C. Braunreiter; Alphonso A. Samuel; Judith L. David
A system and method for detecting a target. The inventive method includes the steps of receiving a complex return signal of an electromagnetic pulse having a real and an imaginary component; extracting from the imaginary component information representative of the phase component of the return signal; and utilizing the phase component to detect the target. Specifically, the phase components are those found from the complex range-Doppler map. More specific embodiments further include the steps of determining a power spectral density of the phase component of the return signal; performing a cross-correlation of power spectral density of the phase component of the return signal between different antenna-subarray (quadrant channels); and averaging the cross-correlated power spectral density of the low frequency components. In an alternative embodiment, the cross-correlation is performed on the phase component of the range-Doppler map directly. This signal can then be averaged to potentially provide improved detection of targets. The cross-correlations of the power spectral densities derived from the complex valued range-Doppler map are then used to detect the target in the presence of monostatic clutter. An additional teaching relates to a utilization of the phase component to ascertain a direction of the target and thereby effect target tracking as well as target detection.

A device for the unambiguous measurement of the angle of roll of a projectile, comprises at least a radar equipped with means of processing and sending a signal to the casing of the projectile in at least one direction of incident polarization; a set of parallel grooves made on the casing, the depth of which is modulated dissymmetrically with respect to the axis of symmetry of the projectile; the axis of symmetry of the projectile not passing through the point of the antenna of the radar where the antenna beam is generated, the processing means analyzing, in reception, a signal back-scattered by the casing of the projectile, the signal being modulated as a function of the angle of roll of the projectile, the modulation having two maximum local values corresponding to two angular roll positions of the projectile such that the polarization {right arrow over (E)} is parallel to the grooves, the processing means removing the 180null ambiguity by comparing the levels of the local maximum values. The device can be applied especially to the correction of the paths of projectiles fired by a gun and when the correction requires knowledge of the roll position of the projectiles.

A method and system are disclosed for detecting objects of interest in a target area using ultra wide band (UWB) RF signals. A transmitter and antenna array generate ultra wide band RF impulsive signals that are used to probe a target area that may include an object of interest. An antenna and a signal processor receive return signals from the target area and process the return signal to generate a set of coordinates. The coordinates of the processed return signals are compared to coordinates of known objects in a pre-existing database to determine whether there is a match between the return signal and a known object. When there is an indication of a match, the existence of the known object is displayed to an operator of the system.
