Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High-Frequency Surface Wave Radar(HFSWR) is a radar technology that offers numerous advantages for low-cost, medium accuracy surveillance of coastal waters beyond the exclusive economic zone. However, target detection and tracking is primarily limited by ionospheric interference. Ionospheric clutter is characterized by a high degree of nonhomogeneity and nonstationarity, which makes its suppression difficult using conventional processing techniques. Space-time adaptive processing techniques have enjoyed great success in airborne radar, but have not yet been investigated in the context of HFSWR. This thesis is primarily concerned with the evaluation of existing STAP techniques in the HFSWR scenario and the development of a new multistage adaptive processing approach, dubbed the Fast Fully Adaptive (FFA) scheme, which was developed with the particular constraints of the HFSWR interference environment in mind. To this end an analysis of measured ionospheric clutter is conducted, which allows for a characterization of the underlying statistical behavior of the HFSWR interference. Several popular low-complexity STAP algorithms are assessed for their performance in HFSWR. Focus is then shifted towards the development of the FFA approach. Three different spatio-temporal partitioning schemes are introduced. A thorough investigation of the performance of the FFA is conducted in both the airborne radar and HFSWR setups under a variety of sample-support scenarios.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High frequency surface wave radar (HFSWR), used for coastal surveillance, operates in a challenging environment as the clutter signals returned from the ocean surface can be several orders of magnitude larger than returns from targets. Reliably detecting small boats in severe sea states, is therefore quite difficult. In this thesis we take a two-fold approach to improving the detection performance of Raytheon Canada's third generation HFSWR system. First, we consider the design of transmit waveforms with improved range resolution, thus reducing the area of the clutter cell. We develop an algorithm to design practical spectrally-compliant waveforms which achieve high bandwidths while simultaneously avoiding interference with concurrent communications users. We then propose a new detection algorithm based on the best known statistical model for sea clutter, the K-distribution. We show that both the proposed transmit waveforms and detection algorithm can lead to improved detection performance in a sea clutter environment.

Book Synopsis Enhanced Detection of Small Targets in Ocean Clutter for High Frequency Surface Wave Radar by :
Download or read book Enhanced Detection of Small Targets in Ocean Clutter for High Frequency Surface Wave Radar written by and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The small target detection in High Frequency Surface Wave Radar is limited by the presence of various clutter and interference. Several novel signal processing techniques are developed to improve the system detection performance. As an external interference due to local lightning, impulsive noise increases the broadband noise level and then precludes the targets from detection. A new excision approach is proposed with modified linear predictions as the reconstruction solution. The system performance is further improved by de-noising the estimated covariance matrix through signal property mapping method. The existence of non-stationary sea clutter and ionospheric clutter can result in excessive false alarm rate through the high sidelobe level in adaptive beamforming. The optimum threshold discrete quadratic inequality constraints method is proposed to guarantee the sidelobe-controlling problem consistently feasible and optimal. This constrained optimization problem can be formulated into a second order cone problem with efficient mathematical solution. Both simulation and experimental results validate the improved performance and feasibility of our method. Based on the special noise characteristics of High Frequency radar, an adaptive switching Constant False Alarm Rate detector is proposed for targets detection in the beamformed range-Doppler map. The switching rule and adaptive footprint are applied to provide the optimum background noise estimation. For this new method about 14% probability of detection improvement has been verified by experimental data, and meanwhile the false alarm rate is reduced significantly compared to the original CFAR. The conventional Doppler processing has difficulty to recognize a target if its frequency is close to a Bragg line. One detector is proposed to solve this co-located co-channel resolvability problem under the assumption that target/clutter have different phase modulation. Moreover with the pre-whitening processing, the Rever.
Book Synopsis Non-Stationary Interference Cancellation in HF Surface Wave Radar by :
Download or read book Non-Stationary Interference Cancellation in HF Surface Wave Radar written by and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High frequency (HF) interference in surface wave over-the-horizon (OTH) radars typically exhibits a time-varying or non-stationary spatial structure. Adaptive beamformers that update the spatial filtering weight vector within the coherent processing interval (CPI) are likely to suppress such interference most effectively, but the intra-CPI antenna pattern fluctuations result in temporal de-correlation of the clutter which severely degrades sub-clutter visibility after Doppler processing. A robust adaptive beamformer that effectively suppresses non-stationary interference without degrading sub-clutter visibility is proposed. The new algorithm is computationally efficient and suitable for practical implementation. Its operational performance is evaluated using experimental data recorded by Iluka HF surface wave (HFSW) OTH radar, located near Darwin in far north Australia.

Download or read book Mitigation of Ionospheric Effects on High Frequency Surface Wave Radar written by and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High Frequency Surface Wave Radar (HFSWR) takes advantage of the di raction of electromagnetic waves over the conducting ocean surface to detect, locate, and track surface vessels beyond the line-of- sight horizon of the earth. However, long-range surface vessel detection is often confounded by radar clutter comprising echoes from the ionospheric plasma. In this paper, we characterize the angular spectrum of these re ections, and from this information deduce the signal-to-clutter processing gain that can be realized by various adaptive receive antenna array con gurations. In particular, it is shown that there is advantage to be realized by sampling ionospheric echoes with a planar two-dimensional array rather than a conventional linear one-dimensional HFSWR array. Using a planar array, the radar can distinguish high-elevation ionospheric clutter signals from low-elevation surface target echoes.
