Chapter 8. Radar applications of compressive sensing by Albert G. Huizing and Reinier G. Tan Chapter 9. Advances in SAR change detection by Leslie M. Novak; Chapter 10. Future challenges by David Blacknell and Hugh Griffiths; Index. The ability to detect and locate targets by d…
"An updated version of the book published in 2001, this second edition includes new material on compressed sensing and its possible application to beam forming, results for phase-only-nulling against jammers, descriptions of further algorithms for superresolution and the reconna…
This book covers all aspects of foliage penetration (FOPEN) radar for both airborne military systems and earth resource mapping. It is the first book to be published on this subject and is the result of a decade-long investment by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (D…
Hepatitis E (HEV) is a viral infectious disease that infects humans and domestic, wild, and synanthropic animals alike. In developing countries, the disease often presents as an epidemic, transmitted primarily through the fecal-oral route. In recent years, sporadic cases have al…
This book provides a practical guide to the commonly used detection methods for seed-transmitted viruses and viroids affecting both tropical and non-tropical crops. The first part describes important aspects of seed-transmitted viral diseases. The second and main part contains p…
This book summarizes the application of signal detection theory to the analysis and measurement of the human observer's sensory system. The theory provides a way to analyze what had been called the threshold or sensory limen, the basic unit of all discrimination studies, whether…
Describes molecular techniques for the detection and discrimination of major infectious bacteria associated with foods. This work places particular focus on genes associated with pathogenicity used in the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Each chapter deals with a specific organi…
The modeling of micromechanical systems (MEMS) under shock conditions can be an extremely difficult task for MEMS engineers. Overall, this field of research is multiphasic nature, since different physical phenomena are strongly intertwined at microscale. This work concentrates o…
Intelligent transportation systems use in-pavement inductive loop sensors to collect real time traffic data. This method is very expensive in terms of installation and maintenance. Our research is focused on developing advanced algorithms capable of generating high amounts of en…
