Abstract:
Familiarity with random processes and their f?unction in electrical engineering.
The course subjects include: probability theory and Bayes' law, random variables, distribution f?unction and density f?unctions, moments and characteristic f?unctions, f?unctions of multiple random variables, random processes, stationarity and ergodicity,
autocorrelation and cross-correlation, power spectrum, passage of stationary random processes through LTI systems, Gaussian processes, narrow band processes, maximization criteria for signal to noise ratio, matched filter, filtering, prediction and estimation using minimum mean square error, Wiener filter, Markov process.Abstract:
Radars are unique instruments that detect objects in air, land, sea and space.
This course gives a broad overview of radar fundamentals, starting from the building blocks and covering sub-systems and systems.
Special emphasis is put on defense radars with multi f?unctional capabilities (search, track, track while scan, pulse doppler, FMCW, SAR, Multi Beam, Phased Arrays and MIMO radars) with frequent examples and oral exercises.
The course is based on power-point presentations written by Dr O'Donnel from the MIT Lincoln Radar Laboratory and Technical Appendices.
