High-Resolution Radar via Compressed Sensing
Student-Run Research Seminar| Speaker: | Matthew Herman, UC Davis |
| Location: | 2112 MSB |
| Start time: | Wed, Jan 30 2008, 12:10PM |
This talk describes how Compressed Sensing techniques can achieve better resolution in locating targets than traditional radar. First, I'll give an overview of Compressed Sensing motivated by a simple signal acquisition and compression model (similar to how digital audio and and video systems work). Then I'll show how applying these techniques to radar can improve the resolution over traditional methods. This area of research uses mathematical tools primarily from Applied Harmonic Analysis, and Linear Algebra.
