20220283281 · 2022-09-08 ·

A radar apparatus includes a transmission-reception antenna unit including a plurality of transmission antennas and a plurality of reception antennas along a predetermined array direction, which form a virtual array in which a plurality of virtual reception antennas are arranged along the array direction. Based on virtual reception signals received by the virtual reception antennas, the radar apparatus detects an object that reflects transmission signals, calculates a transmission phase difference between the transmission antennas of the transmission signals transmitted by the transmission antennas, and calculates a reception phase difference between the reception antennas of reception signals received by the reception antennas. The radar apparatus calculates a transmission-reception phase difference that is a difference between the calculated transmission phase difference and the calculated reception phase difference, and determines that the detected object is a ghost, in response to the calculated transmission-reception phase difference being greater than a predetermined phase threshold.

SYSTEM AND METHOD OF HYPERSONIC OBJECT TRACKING
20220065587 · 2022-03-03 · ·

A system and method of tracking a hypersonic object over a flightpath includes at least one observer having at least one sensor. The sensor is configured to provide measurements of the hypersonic object that are geometrically diverse such that each observer may independently measure any combination of range, angles, Doppler, and angle rates. The observers transmit measurements to a processing unit as the hypersonic object undergoes three phases including a boost phase, a ballistic phase, and a hypersonic glide phase. The hypersonic object is tracked over many time steps by first selecting a dynamics model representative of expected object kinematics during said phase. Then, an unscented Kalman filter is used to predict a future state and a covariance using the dynamics model that was selected. Finally, the unscented Kalman filter updates the future state and covariance that were predicted based on the geometrically diverse measurements of the sensors.
