A self-contained approach to DSP techniques and applications inradar imaging
The processing of radar images, in general, consists of three majorfields: Digital Signal Processing (DSP); antenna and radaroperation; and algorithms used to process the radar images. Thisbook brings together material from these different areas to allowreaders to gain a thorough understanding of how radar images areprocessed.
The book is divided into three main parts and covers:
* DSP principles and signal characteristics in both analog anddigital domains, advanced signal sampling, and interpolationtechniques
* Antenna theory (Maxwell equation, radiation field from dipole, andlinear phased array), radar fundamentals, radar modulation, andtarget-detection techniques (continuous wave, pulsed LinearFrequency Modulation, and stepped Frequency Modulation)
* Properties of radar images, algorithms used for radar imageprocessing, simulation examples, and results of satellite imagefiles processed by Range-Doppler and Stolt interpolation algorithms
The book fully utilizes the computing and graphical capability ofMATLAB? to display the signals at various processing stages in 3Dand/or cross-sectional views. Additionally, the text iscomplemented with flowcharts and system block diagrams to aid inreaders' comprehension.
Digital Signal Processing Techniques and Applications in RadarImage Processing serves as an ideal textbook for graduate studentsand practicing engineers who wish to gain firsthand experience inapplying DSP principles and technologies to radar imaging.
