The invention discloses a golf ball tracking system, which includes a distributed sensor and processor system adapted to simultaneously track the trajectories of multiple golf balls hit by one of more golfers. The system is adapted to keep track of the location of the golfers to enable the allocation of shots to the correct golfer. The system is operated at a golf driving range, where multiple players can hit balls from anywhere within a designated area and/or fixed hitting bay locations. Multilateration is used to determine the location of multiple targets in 3D space, based on the reported range and Doppler from distributed radar sensors.

A method comprising: obtaining pose data representative of a pose of a portable device during observation of an environment comprising an object; obtaining distance data representative of a distance between the object and a receiver during the observation of the environment, using at least one radio waveform reflected from the object and received by the receiver; and processing the pose data and the distance data to generate a topological model of the object.

A method and a system for locating underground targets by using radar signals emitted from a radar transmitter coupled to a transmitter antenna, and echoed signals collected from a target by a radar receiver coupled to a transmitter antenna. The radar signals are collected via the receiver antenna which translates above ground along a closed course in cooperation with the transmitter antenna. The radar signals are processed in correlation with time and with a respective momentaneous location of the receiver antenna and the location of the transmitter antenna. The transmitter antenna is disposed on a land borne platform and the receiver antenna is disposed on the same land borne platform or on another land borne platform or on an airborne platform. The land borne platform and the airborne platform are selected as a mobile platform, a driver guided platform, a remotely guided platform, or an autonomously guided platform.

A radar level gauge system, for determining a filling level of a product in a tank. The radar level gauge system includes a transmission line probe arranged inside the tank; a tank feed-through for mechanically attaching the transmission line probe to a tank wall of the tank through a non-conductive mechanical connection between the transmission line probe and the tank wall, and for providing a conductive electrical connection to the transmission line probe from outside the tank; and a measurement electronics unit arranged outside the tank.

A method of wellbore analysis using TM01 and TE01 modes of radar waveforms can include transmitting, at a first time, a radar waveform from a wellhead into a tubing disposed in a wellbore positioned in a reservoir. The radar waveform is either a TM01 mode or a TE01 mode waveform. The tubing includes a fluid, and the surface of the wellbore includes the wellhead. At a second time, a reflected waveform generated by reflecting the transmitted radar waveform on a fluid surface of the fluid is received at the wellhead. A fluid level of the fluid is determined based on the time difference between the first time and the second time, and on a transmission speed of the radar waveform from the wellhead to the fluid surface. The fluid level is a distance between the wellhead and the fluid surface of the fluid.

A system for tracking multiple projectiles includes a first radar device aimed so that a field of view of the first radar device covers at least a portion of a target area into which projectiles are to be launched from a plurality of launch locations and a processor receiving data from the radar and identifying from the data tracks of a plurality of projectiles. The processor determines for each projectile track identified a specific one of the launch locations from which the projectile was launched and provides to the launch location associated with each projectile data corresponding to a trajectory of the projectile.

This document describes techniques for radio frequency (RF) based micro-motion tracking. These techniques enable even millimeter-scale hand motions to be tracked. To do so, radar signals are used from radar systems that, with conventional techniques, would only permit resolutions of a centimeter or more.
