[IEEE 2018 IEEE Conference on Antenna Measurements & Applications (CAMA) - Va?ster?s (2018.9.3-2018.9.6)] 2018 IEEE Conference on Antenna Measurements & Applications (CAMA) - UAS-Based Antenna Pattern Measurements and Radar Characterization
摘要: This paper presents an update of the current in-situ antenna characterization and calibration of a radar system using an Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) developed by the Advanced Radar Research Center (ARRC) at The University of Oklahoma. A large multirotor platform was customized for long endurance (~30 minutes), high positioning accuracy (<3 cm), and high stability, and was integrated with a high precision 3-axis gimbal that holds an antenna array and pulse generator-transmitter. The platform was designed to support measurements from 2 GHz to 10 GHz, however, the current setup described in this article includes an S-band array probe of 3x3 elements. The RF probe beamwidth was optimized to minimize reflections from the UAS frame and to provide accurate antenna measurements in flight conditions.

Urban Tomographic Imaging Using Polarimetric SAR Data
摘要: In this paper, we investigate the potential of polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) tomography (Pol-TomoSAR) in urban applications. TomoSAR exploits the amplitude and phase of the received data and offers the possibility to resolve multiple scatters lying in the same range–azimuth resolution cell. In urban environments, this issue is very important since layover causes multiple coherent scatterers to be mapped in the same range–azimuth image pixel. To achieve reliable and accurate results, TomoSAR requires a large number of multi-baseline acquisitions which, for satellite-borne SAR systems, are collected with long time intervals. Then, accurate tomographic reconstructions would require multiple scatterers to remain stable between all the acquisitions. In this paper, an extension of a generalized likelihood ratio test (GLRT)-based tomographic approach, denoted as Fast-Sup-GLRT, to the polarimetric data case is introduced, with the purpose of investigating if, in urban applications, the use of polarimetric channels allows for reduction of the number of baselines required to achieve a given scatterer’s detection performance. The results presented show that the use of dual polarization data allows the proposed detector to work in an equivalent or better way than use of a double number of independent single polarization channels.

摘要: This work provides Antenna in package (AiP) implemented on Advanced single sided substrates (aS3 package) , which utilizes low-cost substrate and low-cost assembly process. The dipole antenna implemented on aS3 package results in a peak gain of 5 dBi at operating frequency band. The return loss of < - 10 dB bandwidth is from 65 to 81 GHz. The resonant rectangular series-fed patch array implemented on aS3 package results in a peak gain of 8 dBi at operating frequency band. The return loss of < - 10 dB bandwidth is from 76 to 81 GHz. The antenna performance of antenna on aS3 package meets the requirements of 77 GHz automotive radar systems. This work also discuss with the impact of fabrication inaccuracies on the antenna bandwidth and gain. For 77 GHz automotive radar application, the corner analysis of process variation supports correct antenna performance and a short time to market.

摘要: A new L-band radar system is proposed to measure ice thickness, basal conditions and ice-shelves bottom melt rates. The concept for ice measurements with an L-band radar is based on the recent success in sounding shallow low-loss ice (< 1 km) and measuring ice-self melt rates with a 600-900 MHz low-power radar, referred to as accumulation radar [1]. A surface-based radar operating over 1.2-1.4 GHz with a peak transmit power of 2 kW is proposed to sound and image more than 4 km thick ice. The higher frequency at 1.3 GHz will provide the sensitivity required to detect basal water film as thin as 0.5 mm as compared to radars operating now at frequencies less than 600 MHz. These radars need a minimum film thickness of 4 mm or more for reliable detection. The proposed L-band radar will also measure the bottom melt rate of ice shelves. The current plan is to deploy the proposed radar for field test in Antarctica during the 2018-2019 field season.

[IEEE 2018 IEEE International Conference on RFID Technology & Application (RFID-TA) - Macau, Macao (2018.9.26-2018.9.28)] 2018 IEEE International Conference on RFID Technology & Application (RFID-TA) - Research on Fast Algorithm for General Bistatic SAR Raw Signal
摘要: A fast algorithm for general bistatic synthetic aperture radar (SAR) raw signal based on two-dimensional frequency domain is proposed. The SAR echo signal model is established by the algorithm, the accurate expression of two-dimensional frequency domain for the bistatic SAR echo signal are deduced with series reversion. Simulating large range and azimuth coupling, the accurate computation of echo signal is realized and the complexity of the algorithm is analyzed. The simulation results show that the simulation speed of SAR echo is greatly improved under the premise of ensuring the high phase accuracy, and the validity of the algorithm is proved.

摘要: Scalloping is one of the critical problems in ScanSAR images. It not only affects image visualization, but also influences the quantitative applications such as surface wind and wave retrievals in the ocean area. The existing method of descalloping needs artificial parameter setting and lacks generality in the image domain. A novel deep neural network based on residual learning for descalloping of ScanSAR images is proposed in this paper. The proposed method can eliminate scalloping patterns and has strong adaptive ability, which can handle inhomogeneous scalloping patterns and different scenarios. Experiments on GF-3 ScanSAR images verify the good performance of this method. The code for our models is available online.

摘要: For airborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) processing in its diving stage, the diving velocity brings additional range variance to the range history in the synthetic aperture time. The traditional hyperbolic range model is not accurate enough to approximate the actual range equation and the precise two-dimensional spectrum cannot be achieved. In order to address this problem, a highly accurate spectrum deduction based on high-order equivalent range model is proposed in this paper. By introducing the high-order terms, more degrees-of-freedom are obtained for the equivalent range model and the actual range history can be accurately fitted. Based on the achieved range model, the two-dimensional spectrum for diving stage SAR can be accessed. Simulation experiments are carried out to validate the effectiveness of proposed spectrum.

[IEEE IGARSS 2018 - 2018 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium - Valencia (2018.7.22-2018.7.27)] IGARSS 2018 - 2018 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium - Effect of Non-Uniform Azimuth Sampling on Sar Image Formation Evaluated at 79Ghz
摘要: Conventional synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image formation requires uniform sampling along the azimuth direction. These image formation relies on frequency domain algorithms including the Range-Doppler Algorithm (RDA), Chirp-Scaling Algorithm (CSA) [1] etc, that make use of azimuth Fast Fourier Transform, hence the requirement of uniform sampling. While uniform sampling in space is not always achievable, the samples can be interpolated onto a uniform grid given the sampling rate is Nyquist. This paper studies the effect of SAR image formation when the azimuth sampling is not uniform, and not Nyquist in some interval. The results showed that even if there is a wide interval in the middle of the synthetic aperture with no samples, an image can still be formed. This result could be useful when the SAR antenna is a phased array, or when the hardware is generating bursts of pulses followed by a quiet window.

[IEEE IGARSS 2018 - 2018 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium - Valencia (2018.7.22-2018.7.27)] IGARSS 2018 - 2018 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium - Operational Agricultural Flood Monitoring with Sentinel-1 Synthetic Aperture Radar
摘要: Agricultural flood monitoring is important for food security and economic stability. Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) has the advantage over optical data by operating at wavelengths not impeded by cloud cover or a lack of illumination. This characteristic makes SAR a potential alternative to optical sensors for agricultural flood monitoring during disasters. The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of using freely available Copernicus Sentinel-1 SAR data for operational agricultural flood monitoring in the United States (U.S.). The operational detection of flood inundation was tested during Hurricane Harvey in 2017, which resulted in significant flooding over Texas and Louisiana, U.S. This paper presents 1) the agricultural flood monitoring method that utilizes Sentinel-1 SAR, the NASS 2016 Cultivated Layer, and the NASS 2016 and 2017 Cropland Data Layers; 2) flood detection validation results and 3) inundated cropland and pasture acreage estimates. The study shows that Sentinel-1 SAR is an effective and valuable data source for operational disaster assessment of agriculture.

摘要: The improvement of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) resolution brings a broader applications but poses a great burden for SAR data processor. Real-time processing becomes a difficulty. Optronic technology has been developed for SAR real-time processing due to its ultrafast processing speed. A novel real-time optronic high-resolution SAR processor is proposed in this paper. It has the capability of full-resolution imaging. Restricted with the data scale of spatial light modulators (SLMs), SAR raw data cannot be all encoded onto the light beams at a time. To solve this, subaperture architecture is introduced in our system scheme. SAR data is optically processed in parallel by multiple optical subaperture processing modules and synthesized into a full-resolution SAR image. The module is implemented by multiple SLMs and lenses, which is innovatively proposed in this paper. The proposed system is applicable to large-scale SAR data processing, and the data scale is easy to extend with implementation of adding identical optical subaperture processing modules. Airborne SAR real data is used in the experiment, and a high-resolution image is also given. The PSLR of the focus results with and without subaperture partition are analyzed, which validate the satisfying image quality of the proposed algorithm.
