Wang, J. (author), Aubry, P.J. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)In this paper, a wavenumber-domain matrix-pencil-based multiband signal fusion approach was proposed for multiband microwave imaging. The approach proposed is based on the Born approximation of the field scattered from a target resulting in the fact that in a given scattering direction, the scattered field can be represented over the whole...journal article 2018

de Groot, T.H. (author), Krasnov, O.A. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)Modern sensors, such as multifunctional radars, comprise many settings and the number of controllable settings is increasing due to technological advance. Although having many settings allows many capabilities, it simultaneously requires an automatic manager to control them. This paper proposes mission-driven resource management to control...journal article 2018

Puskely, J. (author), Aslan, Y. (author), Roederer, A.G. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)In this paper, we present a 5G base station phased antenna array concept based on the power equalization in the elevation cut. We designed aperture coupling microstrip patch array exploiting a substrate integrated waveguide structure as feeding line for realization of the cosecant radiation pattern in elevation cut. The antenna is designed to be...conference paper 2018

Aslan, Y. (author), Puskely, J. (author), Roederer, A.G. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)A convex iterative algorithm for the synthesis of uniform amplitude, space-tapered linear phased arrays with simultaneous multiple beam optimization for 5G applications is presented. The performance of the algorithm is demonstrated by the synthesis of two arrays having 16 and 24 elements with 60 and 90 degree scan range, respectively. The effect...conference paper 2018

Aslan, Y. (author), Puskely, J. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)Optimization of heat source distribution in two dimensional heat conduction for electronic cooling problem is considered. Convex optimization is applied to this problem for the first time by reformulating the objective function and the non-convex constraints. Mathematical analysis is performed to describe the heat source equation and the...journal article 2018

Sun, S. (author), Kooij, B.J. (author), Jin, T. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)In this paper, we improved the performance of the contrast source inversion (CSI) method by incorporating a so-called cross-correlated cost functional, which interrelates the state error and the data error in the measurement domain. The proposed method is referred to as the cross-correlated CSI. It enables better robustness and higher inversion...journal article 2017

Haider, S.N. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author), Roederer, A.G. (author)A frequency reconfigurable phased array element is presented. The operational band of the single port L/S-band antenna can be selected by modifying the element apertures with p-I-n diode switches. The antenna element satisfies strict requirements on its frequency band separation (2.2:1), size, feeding structure and control lines to be...journal article 2017

Petrov, N. (author), le Chevalier, F. (author), Bogdanovic, N. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)The problem of range-migrating target detection in a compound-Gaussian clutter is studied here. We assume a target to have a range-walk of a few range cells during the coherent processing interval, when observed by wideband radar with high range resolution. Two CFAR detectors are proposed assuming different correlation properties of clutter over...conference paper 2017

Ivashko, I. (author), Leus, G.J.T. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)In this paper, we tackle the problem of selecting the radar node positions to provide an estimate of the target state vector with a prescribed accuracy. The topology optimization problem is formulated as selection of a fixed number of radar node positions from a set of available ones, where the radar observations are modeled by a general non...journal article 2017

Puskely, J. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author), Roederer, A.G. (author)A novel two-port, dual-band square-ring microstrip antenna element for wide-angle scanning planar phased array is proposed. The two ports are used to operate the antenna array over the L and S radar bands. Microstrip square-ring radiators are chosen due to their smaller dimensions compared to the conventional microstrip patch. To extend...conference paper 2016

Petrov, N. (author), le Chevalier, F. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)In this paper the influence of clutter power spectrum on unambiguous radar target detection with single low pulse repetition frequency wideband waveform is analyzed. Impact of both stationary and diffuse clutter components for different signal bandwidths and coherent processing intervals (CPI) is studied. Exponential model of the ground clutter...conference paper 2016

Petrov, N. (author), le Chevalier, F. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)In this paper the problem of unambiguous moving target detection using wideband radar is considered. Doppler ambiguities, which are present in the low pulse repetition frequency mode, are transformed into ambiguous sidelobes of targets and clutter using range migration effect. However, the level of these sidelobes is typically high, such that...conference paper 2016

Wang, J. (author), Aubry, P.J. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)A novel approach to full-polarimetric short-range imaging with rotating arrays is proposed. Instead of taking advantage of all four possible combinations of the polarizations of transmit and receive antennas as in the typical full-polarimetric imaging systems, the suggested antenna array acquires three different co-polarized measurements at...journal article 2016

Blanco Campo, A. (author), le Chevalier, F. (author), Yarovoy, Alexander (author)One of the most striking challenges that radar designers have to deal with, when developing new doppler systems, is to overcome the difficulty of working with ambiguous velocities. Even using high PRF’s, target’s velocities become ambiguous because wavelengths are getting shorter. This article tries to depict an idea of becoming unambiguous in...conference paper 2015
