Description

This work provides a detailed introduction to the principles of Doppler and polarimetric radar, focusing in particular on their use in the analysis of weather systems. The authors first discuss underlying topics such as electromagnetic scattering, polarization, and wave propagation. They then detail the engineering aspects of pulsed Doppler polarimetric radar, before examining key applications in meteorology and remote sensing. The book is aimed at graduate students of electrical engineering and atmospheric science as well as practitioners involved in the applications of polarimetric radar.

Description

At last there is on the market a comprehensive reference and practical guide on the application of US to penile diseases and conditions. This is quite simply the most extensive textbook on the subject. After introductory chapters on technical requirements and penile anatomy, subsequent chapters offer a systematic overview of the diverse applications of color Doppler US.

Description

Pulsed Doppler is a radar system that is capable of not only detecting target location, but also measuring its velocity. Moving target indication (MTI) is a mode of operation of a radar to discriminate a target against clutter. Radar design and system engineers need to understand these essential topics, and this newly revised and updated edition of the classic Artech House book, "MTI and Pulsed Doppler Radar", offers professionals a complete and current presentation of the subject.Moreover, this unique resource provides clear descriptions and characteristics of modern Doppler radars that cannot be found in any other book. The second edition includes a new interactive CD-ROM with MATLAB software that saves practitioners time while working on challenging projects in the field. CD-ROM is included in this title! It contains time-saving MATLAB software that serves as a valuable tool for the analysis and design of "MTI and Pulsed Doppler Radar". The disc also includes several full-color images that support key topics discussed in the book.

Description

A text introducing practicing radar engineers to some of the advanced methods used to analyze and synthesize the echo transfer functions of ISAR targets. Includes a number of illustrations, figures, and equations. Also includes a floppy diskette for use with the text. DLC: Dopplar radar.
