Conference Day Two - 29 August 2019

Monday, July 29th, 2019

9:50 AM CHALLENGES & OPPORTUNITIES FOR RADAR COUNTERING SMALL UAS

• Discussion on recent trends in monitoring small UAS using radar

• Additional points on Micro-Doppler phenomenology and how this can support target classification

• Some experimental results from academic literature, in particular birds vs UAS & payload estimation

1:30 PM ARCHITECTURES FOR COGNITIVE RADAR

• Identifying the three ingredients basic to the constitution of cognitive radar: intelligent signal processing, feedback from the receiver to the transmitter, preservation of the information content of radar returns

• Modelling the Bayesian approach to target detection through tracking

• Comparisons with bat echolocation; a physical realization of cognitive radar

• Applying these theories to cognitive radar in the military environment
