(Ebook) The Micro-Doppler effect in radar. by Victor C. Chen ISBN 9781630815462, 1630815462

Written by a prominent expert in the field, this updated and expanded second edition of an Artech House classic includes the most recent breakthroughs in vital sign and gender recognition via micro-radar, as well as covering basic principles of Doppler effect and micro-Doppler effect and describing basic applications of micro-Doppler signatures in radar. The book presents detailed procedures about how to generate and analyze micro-Doppler signatures from radar signals. Readers will learn how to model and animate an object (such as human, spinning top, rotating rotor blades) with movement, simulation of radar returns from the object, and generating micro-Doppler signature.Review      The book contains the basic principles of Doppler effect and micro-Doppler effect, and their practical applications in radar; the latest discoveries in vital sign and gesture recognition through micro-Doppler radar; guides to modeling and animating objects with movement; simulation of radar returns.A wealth of charts, graphs, equations, and source codes in MATLAB for programs used to simulate radar backscattering, as well as programs for generating micro-Doppler signatures and analyzing characteristics of targets, enhance this advanced resource and reference. The Micro-Doppler Effect in Radar, second edition is highly recommended especially for college and university library science and technology shelves. --James Cox, Midwest Book Review
