Lu, H. (author)
In this thesis, major attention is paid to cooperative diversity as an alternative way to achieve spatial diversity when the multiple antenna structure is not an option. By adopting the cooperative relay nodes to forward information, we can mitigate the fading effects, increase the capacity, lower the bit-error rate, increase the achievable...

Lakshmanan, M.K. (author)
Wavelet Packet Modulation (WPM) is a multi-carrier transmission technique that uses orthogonal wavelet packet bases to combine a collection of information bits into a single composite signal. This system can be considered as a viable alternative, for wide-band communication, to the popular Orthogonal Frequency DivisionMultiplexing (OFDM) system....

Li, Z. (author)
In numerous radar applications, new problems concerning target detection in a clutter environment may occur. These problems cannot be solved using classical methods on the base of our current utilization of the reflection properties of various objects and their environment. Radar features that may assist in solving these problems are sought in...

Vigano, M.C. (author)
Saving space on board, reducing costs and improving the antenna performances are tasks of outmost importance in the field of satellite communication. In this work it is shown how a non-uniformly spaced, direct radiating array designed according to the so called ‘sunflower’ law is able to satisfy stringent requirements with a reduced number of...

The orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a multicarrier spread-spectrum technique which finds wide-spread use in communications. The OFDM pulse compression method that utilizes an OFDM communication signal for radar tasks has been developed and reported in this dissertation. Using the ambiguity function tool, the feasibility of...

Moving target indication (MTI) using radar is of great interest in civil and military applications. Its uses include airborne or space-borne surveillance of ground moving vehicles (cars, trains) or ships at sea, for instance. Airborne (space-borne) radar offers several advantages when compared to optical imaging, they include: day-andnight, all...

Rescue dogs are commonly used during the urban search-and-rescue (USAR) operations for the initial indication on the presence of trapped victims after the collapse of man-made structures. However, dogs are not able to inform the rescue crews whether the trapped victims are alive or not and where exactly they are located. Other complementary...

Ultra-wideband (UWB) is a radio technology that can be used at very low energy levels, for short-range high-bandwidth communications, by using a large radio spectrum. Due to its high speed rate, this technology is nowadays one of the most promising solutions for communications. Maximum data that can be transmitted per second over a communication...

Cognitive Radio is a new paradigm in the wireless communications. It puts the intelligence and awareness dimension to the radio communication system. A Cognitive Radio system will be aware of the changing condition in its environment. The awareness in this thesis is related to the spectrum and the channel stipulation. By intelligent learning and...

Babur, G. (author)
The thesis consists of two parts. The first part is devoted to the theory of dual-orthogonal polarimetric radar signals with continuous waveforms. The thesis presents a comparison of the signal compression techniques, namely correlation and de-ramping methods, for the dual-orthogonal sophisticated signals. The novel time-frequency representation...

Novel solutions for conceiving microstrip reflectarray antennas (MRA) using various types of patches are presented in this PhD thesis. The approach is based on the integration of a varactor diode active device into elementary hollow patch radiators. In the first part of the thesis, a new concept for the realization of a reflectarray based on...

Kovalenko, V. (author)
Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) is seen as one of several promising technologies aimed to help mine detection. GPR is sensitive to any inhomogeneity in the ground. Therefore any APM regardless of the metal content can be detected. On the other hand, all the inhomogeneities, which do not represent mines, show up as a clutter in GPR images....

In the field of airborne earth observation there is special attention to compact, cost effective, high resolution imaging sensors. Such sensors are foreseen to play an important role in small-scale remote sensing applications, such as the monitoring of dikes, watercourses, or highways. Furthermore, such sensors are of military interest;...

Coman, C.I. (author)
A novel solution for conceiving wide band (multi-band) array antennas is presented. The solution is based on the concept of interleaving sparse, sub-arrays operating at separate frequencies. Sparse array antennas offer two major advantages, namely: they have non-uniformly distributed elements, with possibly large distances between elements (this...
