Li, Y. (author), Hoogeboom, P. (author), Russchenberg, H. (author)Fog is a significant factor affecting the public traffic because visibility is reduced to a large extent. Therefore the determination of optical visibility in fog from radar instruments has received much interest. To observe fog with radar, high frequency bands (millimeter waves) have the best option.

(author)This paper is presented as a theoretical analysis for dual-polarized planar phased array radar accuracy requirements in meteorological applications. Based on the local feature of the element pattern, a simplified linear model is developed to approximate the pattern near the beam direction.

Belfiori, F. (author), van Rossum, W. (author), Hoogeboom, P. (author)A coherent two-dimensional (2D) multiple signal classification (MUSIC) processing for the simultaneous estimation of angular and range target positions has been presented. A 2D spatial smoothing technique is also introduced to cope with the coherent behaviour of the received echoes, which may result in a rank deficiency of the signals covariance...article 2014

Caro Cuenca, M. (author), Dheenathayalan, P. (author), van Rossum, W.L. (author), Hoogeboom, P. (author)SAR interferometry (InSAR) requires coherent radar reflections to measure ground displacements. Howev-er, natural coherent reflectors are not always available due to changes in the scattering properties of the ground, e.g., growing vegetation. Furthermore, the opportunistic nature of InSAR measurements can limit its use for infrastructure...conference paper 2014

Anitori, L. (author), Maleki, A. (author), Otten, M.P.G. (author), Baraniuk, R.G. (author), Hoogeboom, P. (author)We consider the problem of target detection from a set of Compressed Sensing (CS) radar measurements corrupted by additive white Gaussian noise. We propose two novel architectures and compare their performance by means of Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves. Using asymptotic arguments and the Complex Approximate Message Passing (CAMP)...article 2013

Anitori, L. (author), Hoogeboom, P. (author), Le Chevalier, F. (author), Otten, M.P.G. (author)In this paper we demonstrate how Compressive Sensing (CS) can be used in pulse-Doppler radars to improve the Doppler performance while preserving range resolution. We investigate here two types of stepped frequency waveforms, the coherent frequency bursts and successive frequency ramps, which can be used for high resolution range profiling....conference paper 2012

Due to the integrated structure and the MIMO nature of the system, a direct measurement of each antenna element behavior cannot be performed. The proposed method is...conference paper 2012
