Dear IEEE members and guests, The next IEEE Control, Aerospace and Electronic Systems (CAES) seminar will be on Monday, 20th May, 2020 at 7:00 pm (Adelaide time). The speaker is Mr Francesco Mancuso from the University of Pisa, Italy, he will be presenting a seminar on: Novel Techniques for 3D Interferometric Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar Please aim to join the WebEx meeting beforehand, so we can start on time. https://ieeemeetings.webex.com/ieeemeetings/j.php?MTID=m0b36d973b0f70456dba99b970f864273 Also, please check out the IEEE SA Section website: https://r10.ieee.org/saus/ Regards Waddah Al-Ashwal IEEE SA CAES Chapter Vice Chair Novel Techniques for 3D Interferometric Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar 3D InISAR, or Three-dimensional Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar, is an advanced radar imaging technique that extends the capabilities of traditional ISAR by providing three-dimensional images of targets. This technique offers high spatial resolution due to the synthetic aperture created by the relative motion between the target and the radar. It is effective in various environmental conditions and does not depend on lighting, making it typically used in surveillance and reconnaissance applications. This technique differs from traditional two-dimensional ISAR imaging by incorporating aspect angle diversity to infer the third dimension, hence delivering a comprehensive volumetric visualization of the target. Consequently, it also improves Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) capabilities by providing detailed three-dimensional data, which allows for distinguishing between different types of objects based on their geometrical characteristics, thereby overcoming the limitations due to the image projection mechanism. This seminar will provide an overview of 3D InISAR and will also present some recent developments that improve the quality of 3D reconstructions. We will explore how the integration of fully polarimetric data can refine result accuracy. Additionally, we will discuss the exploitation of frequency diversity in wideband receivers, which helps resolve the challenges of interferometric phase ambiguity. These techniques collectively enhance the radar system's surveillance capabilities, making 3D InISAR an important tool in surveillance and non-cooperative target recognition applications.
