Radar Systems and Signal Processing

Radar-based activity recognition is a problem that has been of great interest due to applications such as border control and security, pedestrian identification for automotive safety, and remote health monitoring. This paper seeks to show the efficacy of micro-Doppler analysis to distinguish even those gaits whose mic…

This letter introduces a deep learning (DL) framework for the classification of multiple signals in direction finding (DF) scenario via sensor arrays. Previous works in DL context mostly consider a single or two target scenario, which is a strong limitation in practice. Hence, in this letter, we propose a DL framework…

This communication presents two dual-polarized microstrip patch antenna systems based on a single radiating element with 180° ring hybrid coupler for differential feeding to achieve high interport RF isolation. One of the implemented single-layer patch antennas provides more than 67 dB isolation between transmit (Tx)…

This paper studies an integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) system within a centralized cell-free massive MIMO (multiple-input multiple-output) network for target detection. ISAC transmit access points serve the user equipments in the downlink and optionally steer a beam toward the target in a multi-static sensi…

The resolution of a frequency diverse compressive metamaterial aperture imager is investigated. The aperture consists of a parallel plate waveguide, in which an array of complementary, resonant metamaterial elements is patterned into one of the plates. Microwaves injected into the waveguide leak out through the resona…

With the decrease in the cost and size of drones in recent years, their number has also increased exponentially. As such, the concerns regarding security aspects that are raised by their presence are also becoming more serious. The necessity of designing and implementing systems that are able to detect and provide def…

Frequency diverse arrays (FDA) are recently introduced. Not only the phased array and frequency scanning arrays, but also FDA provides electronic beam scanning ability. Moreover, electronic beam scanning is provided without the use of phase shifters or vector modulators. Nevertheless, reported studies on this concept…

The Internet of Things (IoT) is made up of interconnected devices for exchanging information through sensors and actuators. One of the main physical sensors to understand the environment beyond the visible world is a radar. Basically, radars have always been a military tool to investigate the environment. However, wit…

The intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) alters the behavior of wireless media and, consequently, has potential to improve the performance and reliability of wireless systems such as communications and radar remote sensing. Recently, integrated sensing and communications (ISAC) has been widely studied as a means to ef…

The idea of spectrum sharing between radar and wireless communication systems arise because of the need for extra bandwidth for wireless communication systems. Due to strong and ever growing economic, political, social, and technological driving factors, realization of this vision is inevitable in near future. Therefo…

This paper presents a theoretical framework for an analytical investigation of multipath characteristics of frequency diverse arrays (FDAs), a task which is attempted for the first time in the open literature. In particular, transmitted field expressions are formulated for an FDA over a perfectly conducting ground pla…

In this study, a dual-functional radar and communication (RadCom) system architecture is proposed for application at base-stations (BSs), or access points (APs), for simultaneously communicating with multiple user equipments (UEs) and sensing the environment. Specifically, massive multiple-input multiple-output (mMIMO…
