A Novel Structural Assessment Technique to Prevent Damaged FRP-Wrapped Concrete Bridge Piers from Collapse [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Repairing deteriorated concrete bridge piers using externally wrapped fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites have been proven as an effective approach. This technique has also been applied to low-rise building structures.

A Method for Extracting and Imaging Weak Second‐Harmonic Signals in Harmonic Radar

open access: yesIET Radar, Sonar &Navigation, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
Harmonic radar, as an emerging sensing technology, enables high‐sensitivity target detection and localization in complex environments by exploiting the nonlinear scattering characteristics of targets, such as the harmonic responses of electronic devices. Compared with conventional radar systems, it offers strong clutter suppression because most natural

Inverse Airborne Optical Sectioning

open access: yesDrones, 2022
We present Inverse Airborne Optical Sectioning (IAOS), an optical analogy to Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (ISAR). Moving targets, such as walking people, that are heavily occluded by vegetation can be made visible and tracked with a stationary ...

Efficient range alignment algorithm for real-time range-Doppler algorithm [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
When deriving a range-Doppler image or a time-frequency image of a fast-maneuvering target at long range, existing range alignment methods yield poor results due to the large numbers of range profiles (RPs) and range bins that are required for this task.

An Improved Backprojection Autofocus Method for Synthetic Aperture Sonar

open access: yesIET Radar, Sonar &Navigation, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
We propose an improved backprojection (BP) autofocus method for synthetic aperture sonar (SAS), which reduces the computational overhead of existing methods using Anderson acceleration (AA) and the sparsity of high‐intensity pixels in imagery. ABSTRACT Autofocus methods effectively compensate for multi‐source phase errors in synthetic aperture radar ...

Sparse aperture wide-angle inverse synthetic aperture radar imaging based on compressive sensing

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2019
In high-resolution inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) imaging, if the authors enlarge observation angle, range migration would appear and that can cause defocus problem.

Experimental Synthetic Aperture Radar with Dynamic Metasurfaces

open access: yes, 2017
We investigate the use of a dynamic metasurface as the transmitting antenna for a synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging system. The dynamic metasurface consists of a one-dimensional microstrip waveguide with complementary electric resonator (cELC ...

High-resolution Side-view and Top-view Imaging Method of Ship Targets Using Multistatic ISAR [PDF]

open access: yesLeida xuebao, 2012
How to obtain high-resolution images of ship targets is an active research area in radar field due to the complexity of the ship motion. At the same time, multi-platform based surveillance and combat mode is gaining more and more interests in recent ...

An ISAR target motion estimation algorithm based on a differential semblance criterion

open access: yesElectronics Letters, Volume 61, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
This study presents a novel approach for improving rotational motion estimation in multistatic Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (ISAR) imaging through a Differential Semblance Optimization (DSO) criterion. By reducing discrepancies across images from multiple transmitter–receiver pairs, our method enables precise yaw rotation estimation and produces ...
