Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is portrayed as a multiple access channel. An information theory approach is applied to the SAR imaging system, and the information content about a target that can be extracted from its radar image is evaluated by the average mutual information measure. A conditional (...

It is known that detecting small moving objects in astronomical image sequences is a significant research problem in space surveillance. The new theory, compressive sensing, provides a very easy and computationally cheap coding scheme for onboard astronomical remote sensing. An algorithm for small m...

An infrared (IR) imaging simulation framework based on the strap-down platform is proposed for midcourse ballistic targets. It overcomes the shortcoming of the existing algorithms, which cannot simulate IR imaging from the entire midcourse process. The proposed framework includes three steps, target...

Most sensors or cameras discussed in the sensor network community are usually 3D homogeneous, even though their 2D coverage areas in the ground plane are heterogeneous. Meanwhile, observed objects of camera networks are usually simplified as 2D points in previous literature. However in actual applic...

Fuzzy Cognitive Map (FCM) is an inference network, which uses cyclic digraphs for knowledge representation and reasoning. Along with the extensive applications of FCMs, there are some limitations that emerge due to the deficiencies associated with FCM itself. In order to eliminate these deficiencies...
