Workshop on Radar and Sonar Networks

Friday, 12 June 2015 • 14:30 – 18:00

WS-20: Radar and Sonar Networks

Organizer: Mathini Sellathurai (Heriot-Watt University, UK)

Radar and sonar are widely used in many areas of defence and communications of land, sea and air but the recent demands from various military, commercial and scientific applications as well as the plethora of interest in furthering radar and sonar research has generated significant attention in the design and analysis of networks of radar and sonar systems. The goal of the workshop is to solicit the most recent developments in radar and sonar systems with particular emphasis on the following communications and signal processing aspects: active routing and localization, modulations and cellular/WiFi concepts, spectrum sensing/ power/resource allocation, sparse signal reconstruction and detection performance, target/feature/device tracking, and time-frequency analysis of underwater acoustic sensor networks, SAR and MIMO radar sensor networks. This workshop will bring together multidisciplinary experts from academia, industry and government research organizations to identify and discuss technical challenges and recent results in this area
