Radar imaging based on electromagnetic vortex can achieve azimuth resolution without relative motion. The present paper investigates this imaging technique with the use of a single receiving antenna through theoretical analysis and experimental results. Compared with the use of multiple receiving antennas, the echoes from a single receiver cannot be used directly for image reconstruction using ...

Phase error compensation within motion compensation techniques requires range cell migration corrected SAR data. The main contribution of this paper is providing a non-approximated range cell migration correction (RCMC) for processing highly squinted SAR data. Embedded in the conventional Omega-K processing, the approach consists of two coordinate transformations carried out in the 2D frequency...

[1] We analyze short-period precursory energy to PP that can be observed in seismograms in the distance range from 95 to 105 to infer the behavior of subducted slabs beneath western Pacific subduction zones. PP is a P wave once reflected at the free surface between the source and receiver. Using high-resolution seismic array techniques, we analyze the incidence angle, timing, and azimuth of the...

Autonomous navigation airborne forward-looking synthetic aperture radar (SAR) observes the anterior inferior wide area with a short cross-track dimensional linear array as azimuth aperture. This is an application scenario that is drastically different from that of side-looking space-borne or air-borne SAR systems, which acquires azimuth synthetic aperture with along-track dimension platform mov...

The field equations of a special class of teleparallel theory of gravitation and electromagnetic fields have been applied to tetrad space having cylindrical symmetry with four unknown functions of radial coordinate r and azimuth angle θ. The vacuum stress-energy momentum tensor with one assumption concerning its specific form generates one non-trivial exact analytic solution. This solution is c...

This paper investigates the source-distance dependency of head-related transfer functions (HRTFs) on the horizontal and median sagittal planes using the boundary-element method and a dummy head scanned with laser and computer tomography scanners. First, the HRTF spectra are compared among various source positions in a head-centered coordinate system, confirming that the major HRTF spectral feat...

This paper presents a theoretical study of microwave remote sensing of vegetated surfaces. The purpose of this study is to find out if satellite bistatic radar systems can provide a performance, in terms of sensitivity to vegetation geophysical parameters, equal to or greater than the performance of monostatic systems. Up to now, no suitable bistatic data collected over land surfaces are availa...
