Passive Coherent Location
نویسنده
چکیده
In the part of radiolocation focused on one target tracking we can find for example active radar and passive surveillance systems but we cannot find any representative of passive radiolocation area. Therefore this paper is focused on the conceptual design and practical solution of passive radar for one target tracking. The scanning of the area of interest is ensured by an antenna system with a 8x8 Butler matrix. Key-Words: Passive coherent location, radar, phased antenna, bistatic reflecting surface, passive coherent radar, Rotman lens, Butler matrix

Improved Blind Source Extraction for Time Delay Estimate in Passive Coherent Location System
Target localization is one challenge in passive coherent location (PCL) radar system, and the time delay is the most important parameter in the location. The difficulty of time delay estimate (TDE) in PCL system is that the target signal is completely buried in direct path signal, multipath and clutter (DMC). The conventional clutter cancellation algorithms in matched filter (MF) are time consu...
متن کاملAmbiguity Function Analysis and Direct- Path Signal Filtering of the Digital Audio Broadcast (dab) Waveform for Passive Coherent Location (pcl)
This research presents an ambiguity function analysis of the digital audio broadcast (DAB) waveform and one signal detection approach based on signal space projection techniques that effectively filters the direct-path signal from the receiver target channel. Currently, most Passive Coherent Location (PCL) research efforts are focused and based on frequency modulated (FM) radio broadcasts and a...
متن کاملReceiver Site Optimisation for Passive Coherent Location (PCL) Radar System
The Radar Remote Sensing Group in University of Cape Town has developed accurate modelling method that uses 3D maps of the Western Cape to predict the signal path loss between a transmitter, aircraft and a receiver in the Passive Coherent Location (PCL) system. The core objective of this thesis is to investigate the use of this modelling method to optimise the location of receivers in order to ...
متن کاملDiversity-Based Geometry Optimization in MIMO Passive Coherent Location
Applying the recently emerged technique, MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) to PCL (Passive Coherent Location) is expected to improve performance of localization schemes. In this paper, we explore the application of MIMO technology to PCL schemes and see how it improves the spatial diversity of such systems. Specifically, we use the DVB-T stations as the illuminators of opportunity in the si...
متن کاملSignal characterisation and processing in the forward scatter mode of bistatic passive coherent location systems
The transfer of the forward scatter (FS) concept to passive coherent location (FS PCL) systems provides a new emerging area of research. This article is dedicated to the investigation of various aspects of a bistatic passive coherent location (PCL) system operating in the FS mode. For efficient signal processing, appropriate FS PCL system analysis is presented. It is shown that using a relative...
