Ambiguity and area preserving linear transformations in over‐the‐horizon radar
The use of recurrent waveforms in over‐the‐horizon radar (OTHR) necessitates techniques for ambiguity resolution and manipulation. In this paper, the authors elucidate methods for systematically transforming any given waveform so that its ambiguity function is transformed by any desired area preserving the linear transformation of the delay‐Doppler ...

Array self‐calibration for sky‐wave over‐the‐horizon radar with gain‐phase errors
This study proposes a novel algorithm for sky‐wave over‐the‐horizon (OTH) radar array self‐calibration with angle‐independent gain‐phase errors. The proposed method exploits backscattered echo from an ionised meteor trail, which can be considered as disjoint sources of opportunity for their spatial and temporal fluctuations during coherent processing ...

Radars operating in the high‐frequency (HF) band can exploit propagation modes other than line‐of‐sight and are hence widely employed to provide over‐the‐horizon surveillance and remote sensing. Most HF radars operating today rely on surface wave propagation; while opportunities for enhancing their performance by adding cognitive features exist, these ...

Do oil and gas platforms off California reduce recruitment of bocaccio (Sebastes paucispinis) to natural habitat? An analysis based on trajectories derived from high-frequency radar [PDF]
To investigate the possibility that oil and gas platforms may reduce recruitment of rockfishes (Sebastes spp.) to natural habitat, we simulated drift pathways termed “trajectories” in our model) from an existing oil platform to nearshore habitat using ...

On the Use of SuperDARN Ground Backscatter Measurements for Ionospheric Propagation Model Validation
Abstract Prior to use in operational systems, it is essential to validate ionospheric models in a manner relevant to their intended application to ensure satisfactory performance. For Over‐the‐Horizon radars (OTHR) operating in the high‐frequency (HF) band (3–30 MHz), the problem of model validation is severe when used in Coordinate Registration (CR ...

Abstract Monitoring the generation and movement of equatorial plasma bubbles (EPBs) in a large longitude region is crucial important for better understanding their day‐to‐day variability. Using the newly developed Low lAtitude long Range Ionospheric raDar (LARID) at Dongfang (19.2°N, 108.8°E, dip lat.

Detection and Classification of Sporadic E Using Convolutional Neural Networks
Abstract In this work, convolutional neural networks (CNN) are developed to detect and characterize sporadic E (Es), demonstrating an improvement over current methods. This includes a binary classification model to determine if Es is present, followed by a regression model to estimate the Es ordinary mode critical frequency (foEs), a proxy for the ...

Adaptive Transient And Cw Rf Interference Mitigation In Hf Oth Radar: Experimental Results
We introduce an adaptive technique for the joint mitigation of transients and continuous-wave radio-frequency co-channel interference (CW RFI) in high-frequency (HF) over-the-horizon radars (OTHRs). The performance of this technique is illustrated using data from an operational surface-wave radar (SECAR) and from recent experimental trials with sky ...

Sky and ground - wave high frequency (HF) radars: challenges in modelling, simulation and application preface [PDF]
Radar systems operating at high frequency (HF) are able to exploit a variety of propagation mechanisms to achieve line-of-sight (LOS) illumination as well as over-the-horizon coverage, thereby providing many opportunities for long range, wide area multi ...
