Introduction to Sensors for Ranging and Imaging
Book Description:
This comprehensive text reference provides a solid background in active sensing technology. It is concerned with active sensing, starting with the basics of time-of-flight sensors (operational principles, components), and going through the derivation of the radar range equation and the detection of echo signals, both fundamental to understanding radar, sonar and lidar imaging. Several chapters cover electromagnetic and acoustic energy signal propagation, target characteristics, stealth, and clutter. The rest of the book covers the active imaging process for measuring distance, focusing on noise and linear frequency modulation techniques, Doppler processing, and tracking targets.
