FPGAs
Make a Radar Signal Processor on a Chip a Reality (PDF, 66Kb)
This paper describes how we perform over 10 billion multiplications
per second in one FPGA. The secret is distributed arithmetic,
and this paper tells you how it is done. It also addresses
digital demodulation and matched filtering in FPGAs.
Design and
Demonstration of an Advanced On-Board Processor for the
Second-Generation Precipitation Radar (PDF, 4126Kb) This paper
discusses the application of the radar processor described in the
paper "FPGAs make a radar signal processor on a chip a
reality". Lots of colorful graphics, hence the large
size. |

Ground Penetrating
Radar Radar is an acronym coined in the 1934 for RAdio Detection
And Ranging. The first ground penetrating radar survey was performed
in Austria in 1929 to sound the depth of a glacier (Stern, 1929,
1930). The technology was largely forgotten (despite more than 36
patents filed between 1936 and 1971 that might loosely be called
subsurface radar) until the late 1950's when U.S. Air Force radars
were seeing through ice as planes tried to land in Greenland, but
misread the altitude and crashed into the ice. This started
investigations into the ability of radar to see into the subsurface
not only for ice sounding but also mapping subsoil properties and
the water table... |

Building Your
Own Amateur Radar Some years ago, amateur radio hobbyists
wouldn't have dreamed of building or owning their own radar system
because of the incredibly high costs of microwave components. Thanks
in part to the explosions in cellular phone usage, consumer GPS and
satellite TV, microwave components covering up to Ku band are now
readily available at low cost. In addition, amateur radar types have
all the military and commercial radar surplus to draw upon, and many
other nontraditional resources as well. |

Radar
Meteorology: online remote sensing guide Radars have an
important role in the field of meteorology. These devices send out
and receive signals providing valuable information about the
location and intensity of precipitation. Advanced Doppler radar
technology goes beyond simple detection to providing high resolution
reflectivity and estimated velocity data, which is vital to short
term forecasting and severe weather prediction. The purpose of this
module is to introduce the basics of radar meteorology, features of
WSR-88D and MDR radar imagery, and how to interpret Doppler velocity
patterns. |
