Fixed Error Reduction in FM Radar by Weighted Counting Method

FM radio based bistatic radar

An experimental bistatic radar system is described that detects and tracks targets to ranges in excess of 150 km from the receiver, using echoes from a non-cooperative FM radio transmitter. The system concept and limitations on performance are described, followed by details of the processing used to implement the system. An adaptive filter algorithm is described that is used to efficiently remo...

A Method for Defuzzication by Weighted Distance

Polarimetric Detection of Buried Objects by Fm-cw Radar

The subsurface radar suffers from strong clutter from surface and severe wave attenuation in the underground. This paper presents a unique countermeasure to these problems using a polarimetric FM-CW radar equipped with equivalent time sensitivity control (STC) technique. We first apply the polarimetric filtering principle to suppress surface clutter, then, use an equivalent STC technique suited...

Fixed Block Compression Boosting in FM-Indexes

A compressed full-text self-index occupies space close to that of the compressed text and simultaneously allows fast pattern matching and random access to the underlying text. Among the best compressed self-indexes, in theory and in practice, are several members of the FM-index family. In this paper, we describe new FM-index variants that combine nice theoretical properties, simple implementati...

Lifted MEU by Weighted Model Counting

Recent work in the field of probabilistic inference demonstrated the efficiency of weighted model counting (WMC) engines for exact inference in propositional and, very recently, first order models. To date, these methods have not been applied to decision making models, propositional or first order, such as influence diagrams, and Markov decision networks (MDN). In this paper we show how this te...
