Radar Theory and Applications
by J. Scott Goldstein, David A. Garren, and Irving S. Reed
Radar Theory and Applications covers theory, concepts, applications, and research topics in radar. Providing a rigorous foundation for the development of concepts and techniques to support the engineer/graduate student in designing future systems with advanced capabilities, the book is intended for engineers in industry, researchers, and graduate students in academia. This approach is unique in the field, as all other texts are either survey type books for non-practicing radar engineers or intro...
Laser Radar Technology and Applications XVIII (Proceedings of SPIE)
Proceedings of SPIE present the original research papers presented at SPIE conferences and other high-quality conferences in the broad-ranging fields of optics and photonics. These books provide prompt access to the latest innovations in research and technology in their respective fields. Proceedings of SPIE are among the most cited references in patent literature.
This is a standard reference for FAA and military air traffic control engineers and maintenance technicians focused on ground-based radar systems. With the evolution and increasing sophistication of modern radar systems, now more than ever a single-source reference is needed that contains simply understandable information on MTI, MTD, and Air Traffic Control Radar Beacon systems. There is a downside to the drive away from knowledge-based problem solving...massive increases in costs and waste inh...
The Impact of Cognition on Radar Technology (Radar, Sonar and Navigation)
Cognitive dynamic systems are inspired by the computational capability of the brain and the viewpoint that cognition is a supreme form of computation. The key idea behind this new paradigm is to mimic the human brain as well as that of other mammals with echolocation capabilities which continuously learn and react to stimulations according to four basic processes: perception-action cycle, memory, attention, and intelligence. The Impact of Cognition on Radar Technology is an essent...
Electronic Warfare Pocket Guide (Radar, Sonar and Navigation)
by David L. Adamy
The Electronic Warfare Pocket Guide is the perfect companion for any user that needs to access key definitions, concepts, and equations for their work in the field, lab, or even in military theater of operations. While this concise guide fits in almost any pocket, it packs a real punch by providing users the answers to real world electronic warfare problems that come up every day in concept development, technique development, system design, system testing, operational testing, mission planning a...
Including a systematic introduction to the fundamental principles of microwave radar, this text presents an extensive discussion of radar imaging. It also features information on image superresolution, automatic target recognition, moving target indication, and space-time adaptive processing (STAP).

Radar Conference
Spotlight Synthetic Aperture Radar (Remote sensing library)
by Walter C. Carrara, etc., Ron S. Goodman, Ronald M. Majewski, and Williams
Authored by engineers for engineers, this book is designed to be a practical and easy-to-understand solution sourcebook for real-world high-resolution and spot-light SAR image processing. Widely-used algorithms are presented for both system errors and propagation phenomena as well as numerous formerly-classified image examples. As well as providing the details of digital processor implementation, the text presents the polar format algorithm and two modern algorithms for spot-light image formatio...

Proceedings of SPIE present the original research papers presented at SPIE conferences and other high-quality conferences in the broad-ranging fields of optics and photonics. These books provide prompt access to the latest innovations in research and technology in their respective fields. Proceedings of SPIE are among the most cited references in patent literature.
Spaceborne Weather Radar (Radar Library)
by Robert Meneghini and Toshiaki Kozu
Spaceborne Weather Radar details statistical methods, estimation algorithms, and design techniques for the measurement of rainfall and cloud cover from space.
KEY BENEFIT: From fundamentals to functional descriptions to details of the subsystems, the material in this book is presented is such a manner that both professionals and novices can use it to learn the principles and techniques of radar. KEY TOPICS: It provides a breadth of coverage not readily found elsewhere, including functional descriptions of most types of radars in use today, discussions of many specific modern radar techniques, and modern signal processing principles, such as high resol...
A primer on the research issues and techniques for each human factors subdiscipline, this book brings together the works of some of the best human factors researchers, from Wickens to Willeges and from Boehm-Davis to Mital. KEY TOPICS: Each of the fourteen chapters, covering a range of topics from consumer products, to medical devices, to military systems, is written by a noted expert in the area, and is a brief tutorial on the research issues, techniques, and apparatus used when conducting rese...
Non-Line-of-Sight Radar is the first book on the new and exciting area of detecting and tracking targets via radar multipath without direct-line-of-sight (DLOS). This revolutionary capability is finding new applications in the tracking of objects in non-line-of-sight (NLOS) urban environments including detection and tracking of UAVs. This book brings together for the first time all the essential underpinnings and techniques required to develop and field a viable NLOS radar. It presents many exa...
This book defines and illustrates key concepts in radar countermeasure, such as PDW generation, signal sorting and recognition, characteristic analysis of intra-pulse radar signal, and radar emitter location. Written in a practical way, the book focuses on the implementation of signal processing principles in radar countermeasure and is an essential reference for engineers in radar, electronic countermeasure system and signal processing research.
"This 600 page textbook must be a good candidate for being the authoritative reference on its subject....This book reveals all through a good, clear text amply illustrated... The authors and publisher are to be congratulated on an excellent production."--The Naval Review Well organized, clear and easy to read. The second edition has been enlarged with various items devoted to new electronic equipment now encountered by mariners, especially those concerned with navigational and radiocommunicatio...
