  1. 1. Signal Processing for Radar with Array Antennas and for Radar with Micro-Doppler Measurements

    Author : Svante Björklund; Mats Pettersson; Ingvar Claesson; Ulrich Nickel; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; radar; signal processing; array antenna; subarray; clutter; jamming; interference; direction of arrival estimation; security; micro-Doppler; feature extraction; classification;

    Abstract : Radar (RAdio Detection And Ranging) uses radio waves to detect the presence of a target and measure its position and other properties. This sensor has found many civilian and military applications due to advantages such as possible large surveillance areas and operation day and night and in all weather. READ MORE

  2. 2. High-resolution meteor exploration with tristatic radar methods

    Author : Johan Kero; Asta Pellinen-Wannberg; Sigrid Close; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; meteors; meteoroids; interplanetary dust; radar; head echoes; ablation; meteoroid fragmentation; radar; huvudekon; ablation; meteorisk fragmentation; meteorer; meteoroider; interplanetärt stoft; Space engineering; Rymdteknik;

    Abstract : A meteor observed with the naked eye is colloquially called a shooting star. The streak of light is generated by an extra-terrestrial particle, a meteoroid, entering the Earth’s atmosphere. The term meteor includes both luminosity detectable by optical means and ionization detectable by radar. READ MORE

  4. 4. Retrieval of Ocean Surface Currents and Winds Using Satellite SAR backscatter and Doppler frequency shift

    Author : Anis Elyouncha; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Doppler centroid analysis; Bayesian inversion; ocean surface winds; Ocean surface currents; synthetic aperture radar; along-track InSAR;

    Abstract : Ocean surface winds and currents play an important role for weather, climate, marine life, ship navigation, oil spill drift and search and rescue. In-situ observations of the ocean are sparse and costly. Satellites provide a useful complement to these observations. READ MORE

  5. 5. The Optimal trigger speed of vehicle activated signs

    Author : Diala Jomaa; Högskolan Dalarna; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; optimal trigger speed; vehicle activated sign; vehicle mean speed; standard deviation; calibration; Doppler radar; driver behaviour; data analysis; Complex Systems – Microdata Analysis; Komplexa system - mikrodataanalys;

    Abstract : The thesis aims to elaborate on the optimum trigger speed for Vehicle Activated Signs (VAS) and to study the effectiveness of VAS trigger speed on drivers’ behaviour. Vehicle activated signs (VAS) are speed warning signs that are activated by individual vehicle when the driver exceeds a speed threshold. READ MORE
