| Description | Multifunctional radio frequency (RF) sensors are a natural evolution of radar. When first deployed in World War II, the early radar systems were tasked with estimating the range to the potential targets of interest only, and even due to this single functionality it has been claimed that it “is obvious that radar transformed the nature of war more than has any other single invention” [1]. Less than two decades after this triumphant entrance, the radar functionalities were enriched with imaging [2]. This, too, signaled a fundamental change in a number of fields—from the military, which 152could now perform all-weather, day or night surveillance of obscured targets [3], to the civilian applications of radar, such as monitoring ice sheets or obtaining imagery of space bodies [4]. In parallel, the radar as a navigational tool was also explored, primarily for airborne and seaborne navigation [5]. Once these capabilities were established, the need to distinguish between the targets and objects of different shapes and dimensions quickly emerged and, with it, the automatic target recognition (ATR) field [6]. Thus, the functionalities of imaging and detection began to converge. Book Name: Low Power Emerging Wireless Technologies |
