Maritime Moving Target Localization Using Passive GNSS-Based Multistatic Radar

Moving Target Detection by Using New LTE-Based Passive Radar

This paper examines the feasibility of Long Term Evolution (LTE)-based passive radar for detecting ground moving targets. Specifically, the focus of this paper is to describe the proposed LTE-based passive radar system and to conduct an experiment using a real LTE eNB transmitter as an illumination source. Seven scenarios were carried out to investigate the detection performance of the proposed...

Passive Polarimetric Multistatic Radar Detection of Moving Targets

We study the exploitation of polarimetric diversity in passive multistatic radar for detecting moving targets. We first derive a data model that takes into account polarization and anisotropy of targets inherent in multistatic configurations. Unlike conventional isotropic models in which targets are modeled as a collection of uniform spheres, we model targets as a collection of dipole antennas ...

Passive Multistatic Radar Imaging Using an Ofdm Based Signal of Opportunity Thesis

The existence of non-radar radio frequency (RF) signals in the environment possessing radar-like characteristics make them ideal candidates for use in radar applications such as synthetic aperture radar (SAR). The orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) specific Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) waveform is one such example. Research at the Air Force Institute of...

Minefield Overwatch Using Moving Target Indicator Radar

Traditional antipersonnel (AP) land mines are an effective military tool, but they are unable to distinguish friend from foe, or civilian from military personnel. The concept described here uses an advanced moving target indicator (MTI) radar to scan the minefield in order to detect movement towards or within the minefield, coupled with visual identification by a human operator and a communicat...
