ASPIRE, MODEST, RfS Joint Session
The University of Birmingham is pleased to host two days of EMSIG Focus Group meetings on 29th and 30th May covering the following three themed areas:-
1. Advanced Signal Processing in Radar & Electronic Warfare (ASPIRE):
The aim of the focus group is to discuss, investigate and promote the use of advanced signal processing in radar sensors and EW systems across a wide spectrum of applications such as:
(i) short to long range surveillance and imaging radar,
(ii) multi-function radars,
(iii) novel radar and EW concepts with remit also covering system friendly signal processing aspects such as low SWAP solutions, sensor fusion and resource management.
2. Modern trends in short and medium range sensing (MODEST):
The scope of this focus group is to bring together academics, industrialists, and potential end-users working on development of radar technologies intended to provide sensing and, ultimately situational awareness at short ranges, from tens of cm to ranges on the order of a kilometre.
We are excited to start a new focus group of Radar for Space and Sensing for Space Situational Awareness (SSA) which encompasses all uses of radar relevant to space, including
(i) space domain awareness (SDA), considering both ground-based and space-based radar sensors, and
(ii) earth observation using space-based radar.
Research and development within the area of sensing, SAR/ISAR imagery, AI for image processing, scene and object characterization, as well as SDA/SSA use case modelling and simulation approaches are within the wide interests of this group.
