Modelling the performance of USV manoeuvring and target tracking: an approach using frequency modulated continuous wave radar rotary system
نویسندگان
چکیده
The performance of frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar in tracking targets is presented and analysed. Obstacle detection, target tracking and radar target tracking performance models are developed and were used to investigate and to propose ways of improving the autonomous motion of unmanned surface vehicle (USV). Possible factors affecting the performance of FMCW radar in tracking targets are discussed and analysed.

متن کاملMultiple Target Tracking With a 2-D Radar Using the JPDAF Algorithm and Combined Motion Model
Multiple target tracking (MTT) is taken into account as one of the most important topics in tracking targets with radars. In this paper, the MTT problem is used for estimating the position of multiple targets when a 2-D radar is employed to gather measurements. To do so, the Joint Probabilistic Data Association Filter (JPDAF) approach is applied to tracking the position of multiple targets. To ...
متن کاملDetection Performance Improvement of FMCW Radar Using Frequency Shift
Frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radars have been widely used for measuring target range and speed. In this paper, we present a mathematical model that quantifies the system-level performance of FMCW radar systems. In FMCW radar, the target range is measured through measuring the beat frequency between the transmitted and received signal, usually by using Fast Fourier Transform (FFT)....
متن کاملA Distributed Framework Design for Formation Control of Under-actuated USVs in the Presence of Environmental Disturbances Using Terminal Sliding Mode Control
This paper proposes a distributed framework for formation control of USVs around a predefined target. This framework, according to the mission and problem conditions, includes three parts: determination of a desired path for each USV, preventing USVs entry to the target area and tracking the desired path of USVs under environmental disturbances. In the first part, a distributed approach is prop...
متن کاملISAR Imaging using Doppler Processing Algorithm for Moving Targets
Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (ISAR) is used to produce high resolution imagery of non-cooperative targets by retrieving the relative motion parameters of a target with respect to a reference. This concept of estimating motion parameters is applied for obtaining cross-range resolution in ISAR imaging in which one component is produced by the relative motion between the radar and the target a...
