Additionally, because of aliasing, multiple spurious targets will appear in the Doppler data when only a single target with sufficient acceleration is present. Combination of ambiguity and multiple target problems, considerably limits the usefulness of Doppler analysis of low PRF radars. In this paper it will be shown that through time correlation and Doppler signal processing, unambiguous target acceleration values can be obtained in low PRF radars. In addition to accurate acceleration values, the acceleration Doppler processed data can be used to determine the presence of additional targets or debris in the tracking range gate; a valuable tool in accident and mal-function investigation.","PeriodicalId":262646,"journal":{"name":"1996 IEEE Aerospace Applications Conference.

We solve tasks in computer vision using a multi-level, distributed continuous media environment. At the highest level, the system recovers complete 3-D models. The intermediate level is a distributed algorithm for reconstructing multiple frames of the input sequence, operating on a high-speed ATM network of workstations and using a distributed, shared-memory model to store results. Control of camera parameters such as focus at the lowest level uses cues computed directly in the compressed image stream. The image stream is compressed by inexpensive multimedia boards, and we exploit the resulting compressed stream by obtaining low-level control information without complete decompression.","PeriodicalId":262646,"journal":{"name":"1996 IEEE Aerospace Applications Conference.

Performance assessments based on fielded optical systems of this type are few. Our particular application (the BMDO Advanced Sensor Technology Program-ASTP for enhanced theater missile defense capability) calls for the sharing of common optics between a MWIR and LWIR, relatively low-background passive sensor, and a ladar for which the operational wavelength has not been selected. This paper describes the advantages and technical challenges associated with our shared optics application, reviews the state of the art in this area, and derives constraints on system designs. Briefly, we find that the shared aperture approach enjoys the obvious advantages of reduced size and weight, and simplifies handover of targets from the passive sensor to the ladar sensor. These advantages must be traded against potential passive sensor performance degradation in the areas of reduced duty cycle, increased noise floor, and reduced sensitivity.","PeriodicalId":262646,"journal":{"name":"1996 IEEE Aerospace Applications Conference.

Because these lifting surfaces must operate on both tacks, a geometrically symmetrical cross-section is normally used, which inhibits the maximum values of lift that can be generated by a given surface area. To improve the performance it is proposed to develop a cross-section with camber, even though this presents a problem for a lifting surface which has to operate on both tacks. This paper discusses the process and reasoning behind the development of a cambered lifting section for marine vehicles and the way in which aerodynamic data, theory and computational techniques are being applied in this process.","PeriodicalId":262646,"journal":{"name":"1996 IEEE Aerospace Applications Conference.

To generate a new solution by a straightforward analytical design would prove cumbersome because of the large number of scattering surfaces required for the computation. Rather, a unique application was made of the conjugate phase-matching techniques to obtain the desired solution. A plane wave was used to illuminate the main reflector and the fields from the currents induced on the subreflector propagated through the BWG to a plane centered on the input focal point. By taking the complex-conjugate of the currents induced on this plane and applying the radiation integral, the far-field pattern was obtained for a theoretical horn that maximizes the antenna gain. To synthesize a horn quickly and inexpensively, the theoretical horn was matched as well as possible by an appropriately sized circular corrugated horn and the new feed system has been implemented in the JPL Research and Development BWG as part of a dual S/X-band feed system. The new S-band feed system is shown to perform significantly better than the original geometrically designed system.","PeriodicalId":262646,"journal":{"name":"1996 IEEE Aerospace Applications Conference.

The central idea is construction of a \"background space\" as a linear vector subspace modeling the background being viewed. We have applied our algorithm to two test cases which were constructed by simulating random motion of a staring array focal plane over a high resolution scene. The first test case, with clutter noise only, found a low-intensity signal (S/N=0.05) with a 245-fold enhancement by projecting out a background space using 40 principal components. The second test case added Gaussian electronic noise and found the signal with a 34-fold increase in signal-to-noise using 16 principal components. This is believed to closely represent the actual problem encountered in staring array focal planes. Our results show that increasing the number of principal components increases the algorithm's ability to suppress clutter up to the point where electronic noise becomes dominant. We give a heuristic argument for determining the proper number of principal components for maximum signal-to-noise enhancement.","PeriodicalId":262646,"journal":{"name":"1996 IEEE Aerospace Applications Conference.

Each satellite will be equipped with multicolor passive sensors which include visible light, short-wave infrared (SWIR) and long-wave infrared (LWIR) wavebands (among others). After outlining the nature of the NEO impact hazard, the paper describes the SMTS program, and SMTS's role in support of the Air Force Space Command's Space Surveillance and Planetary Defense missions. Data on SMTS's NEO detection range as a function of NEO size is provided for a range of conditions for both the visible and LWIR bands. SMTS's capability to observe the celestial sphere as a by-product of Space Surveillance operations is estimated. This result is used to estimate the probability of observing a NEO during a single pass for a variety of encounters. Finally, SMTS's capability to supply state and intensity estimates for meteors during atmospheric entry using stereo SWIR observations is discussed.","PeriodicalId":262646,"journal":{"name":"1996 IEEE Aerospace Applications Conference.

A class of models based on transforms of cumulative time and cumulative failures is considered. It is used to predict both current as well as future log transformed failure intensity. This class includes several popular software reliability models including the exponential, logarithmic, and power models. It also includes models based on transforms of the time per failure, the time-varying analogue to the mean time between failures. Models are compared on the basis of their predictive performance as measured by the predicted residual sum of squares (PRESS) criterion. Time per failure is included as one of the independent variables in the models identified as having the lowest PRESS score, both when predicting current as well as future log failure intensity. Analyses are conducted using failures within a final subset of the observation interval. This subset is chosen through inspection of the plot of time per failure in terms of cumulative time. The impact of the choice of this subset is assessed by comparing results for analyses of that subset with analyses of the data in the complete observation interval.","PeriodicalId":262646,"journal":{"name":"1996 IEEE Aerospace Applications Conference.
