Applying Artificial Intelligence for radar applications

Overview

Artificial intelligence technology is advancing fast. The possibilities for engineers to apply AI for radar applications is unlimited. We will use some real-world applications for AI which are evident now.

In this session, through detailed examples we will showcase how recent developments in MATLAB and Simulink enable more efficient simulation of AI for radar workflows. Highlights include:

Deep Learning & machine learning for radar applications

• Workflow for AI driven system design
• AI for classification for SAR targets, waveforms, images, micro doppler signatures
• AI for regression including human health monitoring, maritime clutter removal
• AI application examples

Elevation estimation in 3D Surveillance radars using Artificial Intelligence

• Existing challenges in the elevation estimation of aerial targets in 3D surveillance radars
• Motivation to use the AI in elevation estimation techniques
• Implementation & testing of the proposed elevation estimation techniques using MATLAB tools
• Performance improvement using AI techniques
