Radar cross section analysis by shooting and bouncing rays method
Çakır, Mustafa Kağan; Tokdemir, Turgut; Department of Engineering Sciences (2015)
In this study, a MATLAB code incorporating `Shooting and Bouncing Rays (SBR) Method` is developed for calculating Radar Cross Section (RCS) of complex shapes. The code can calculate ray paths, magnetic current sheets, incident and scattered electric fields and RCS in horizontal, vertical and cross polarizations. While reflection effects are calculated by SBR algorithm, diffraction effects due to edges and corners are handled by `Equivalent Edge Currents (EEC’s)`. Wave frequency, aspect angle and number of r...
Radar target detection in non-gaussian clutter
Doyuran, Ülkü; Tanık, Yalçın; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2007)
In this study, novel methods for high-resolution radar target detection in non-Gaussian clutter environment are proposed. In solution of the problem, two approaches are used: Non-coherent detection that operates on the envelope-detected signal for thresholding and coherent detection that performs clutter suppression, Doppler processing and thresholding at the same time. The proposed non-coherent detectors, which are designed to operate in non-Gaussian and range-heterogeneous clutter, yield higher performanc...
Radar cross section reduction of cylindrical cavities using ray-tracing method
Sezgin, Yusuf; Dural Ünver, Mevlüde Gülbin; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2022-5-16)
Low observability technology, which aims to make it difficult to be detected, tracked, and hit by the enemy forces is one of the most critical technologies for 5th generation fighter aircraft. Low observability in Radio Frequency (RF) band is achieved by minimizing the Radar Cross Section (RCS) of the aircraft at specific angular zones and frequencies. RCS is a quantity related to the amount of reflection of the incoming electromagnetic wave by the aircraft and it is generated by different scattering mechan...
Radar target classification method with reduced aspect dependency and improved noise performance using multiple signal classification algorithm
SEÇMEN, MUSTAFA; Sayan, Gönül (Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), 2009-12-01)
This study introduces a novel aspect and polarisation invariant radar target classification method based on the use of multiple signal classification (MUSIC) algorithm for feature extraction. In the suggested method, for each candidate target at each designated reference aspect, feature matrices called 'MUSIC spectrum matrices (MSMs)' are constructed using the target's scattered data at different late-time intervals. An individual MSM corresponds to a map of a target's natural resonance-related power distri...
Radar performance analysis approaches for the evaluation of radar systems
Yener, Ümit; Kuzuoğlu, Mustafa; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2018)
In this thesis study, some approaches are proposed for radar performance analysis. It turns out that average power and antenna aperture area (equivalently, antenna gain) are the most important parameters for the assessment or comparison of radar systems. Search and track load concepts and the utilization trade between search and tracking tasks in multifunction radars are also presented. For long distance search / tracking tasks, performance of a two-radar system is analyzed, and it is shown that cross range...
