    The system approach to the analysis of the phenomena in nature and society have developed intensively for many decades. Usually in the theory of stability the difficult multidimensional system is understand as the system approach, and the scientific information can be integrated without distortion in relatively simple model that showing (sometimes using mathematical tools) origin and development of separate processes. We will select three main methods in constructing of models of steady development: resource, biosphere and integrative. All of them are based on single philosophical and natural-science foundation.

    Target motion estimation via a multistatic FSR

    Get PDF
    The focus of this paper is on the estimation of the kinematic parameters of moving targets via a MIMO Forward Scatter Radar (FSR) system. A sub-optimum estimation technique is considered that exploits the information concerning the time instants at which the target crosses the individual baselines to retrieve the motion parameters. The accuracy of such technique is firstly investigated from a theoretical point of view and then the effectiveness of the proposed approach is demonstrated by applying it to live MIMO FSR data. Shown results prove the practical applicability of the proposed technique

    Wind Turbine Blade Radar Signatures in the Near Field:Modeling and Experimental Confirmation

    Get PDF
    This paper presents methods and results in modeling wind turbine dynamic radar signatures in the near field. The theoretical analysis begins with the simpler case of modeling wind turbine blades as rectangular plates. The theoretical radar signature for the wind turbine in the near field is formulated and its main peculiarities are investigated. Subsequently, the complex shape of the blades is considered and the corresponding radar signatures are modeled. Theoretical modeling is confirmed for both cases via experimental testing in laboratory conditions. It is shown that the experimental results are in good accordance with the theoretically predicted signatures

    Feasibility of passive bistatic geosynchronous radar using comsat transmissions

    Get PDF
    Communication satellites in geosynchronous orbit are increasingly broadcasting digital signals with high bandwidth and high power. These signals are in principle well-suited to radar imaging and the study presented here is an initial feasibility study for a passive bistatic synthetic aperture radar using satellites in geosynchronous orbit (GEO). The persistent viewing possible from GEO could enable important new applications. The mission concept is outlined and studies of the available signal formats identify digital TV broadcasts in Ku-band as most suitable for radar imaging. The additional space hardware required is a dedicated receive channel, which could be implemented as a hosted payload at modest cost. Our findings so far suggest that the mission concept is feasible for coarse spatial resolution images and that it could therefore provide a low-cost technology demonstration of geosynchronous radar

    Ship targets feature extraction with GNSS-based passive radar via ISAR approaches. Preliminary experimental study

    Get PDF
    This paper focuses on a passive radar system based on Global Navigation Satellite Systems for maritime surveillance. While in the past the capability of this technology to detect ship targets at sea was proved, despite the low EIRP level of the GNSS, the objective of this paper is investigating the potential of the system to extract information concerning the detected target characteristics. An experimental study is here provided, showing that the Doppler gradient observed for ship targets of interest can be exploited making use of ISAR approaches for extracting ship features to be exploited in target recognition procedures
