Distributed radar fusion and recurrent networks for classification of continuous human activities

Continuous Human Activity Recognition (HAR) in arbitrary directions is investigated in this paper using a network of five spatially distributed pulsed Ultra-Wideband radars. While activities performed continuously and in unconstrained trajectories provide a more realistic and natural scenario for HAR, the network of radar sensors is proposed...

Automotive radar interference study for different radar waveform types

Mutual interference between different radar waveforms used in automotive radar applications is studied. The existing interference analysis is extended to a generalised radar-to-radar interference equation that covers most of the common interference scenarios for automotive radar systems. The outcome of the generalised equation is demonstrated...

Synchronous and Asynchronous Radar Interference Mitigation

This paper considers the interference mitigation problem for radar systems by focusing on emerging signal separation (decomposition) methods. We define appropriate transform domains to sparsely represent the interference and the signal of interest to separate them from each other. To show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm at actual...

Retrieving fall streaks within cloud systems using doppler radar

The interaction of ice crystals with supercooled liquid droplets in mixed-phase clouds leads to an enhanced growth of ice particles. However, such processes are still not clearly understood although they are important processes for precipitation formation in midlatitudes. To better understand how ice particles grow within such clouds, changes...

High-resolution polarimetric X-band weather radar observations at the Cabauw Experimental Site for Atmospheric Research

In 2007, the horizontally scanning polarimetric X-band radar IDRA (IRCTR Drizzle Radar) was installed on top of the 213 m high mast at the Dutch meteorological observatory Cabauw Experimental Site for Atmospheric Research (CESAR) at Netherlands. This radar complements a large variety of measurement instruments at CESAR by providing information...
