Pages: 4 - 21 Abstract: In recent years, the 5G network has been deployed more and more densely. The signal coverage area is increasing, and in many countries, it allows the use of the new radio in most large cities. This makes it possible to use 5G network signals for telecommunication and remote sensing purposes. This article describes the opportunities and limitations of using 5G signals for radars. The waveform characteristics of the 5G network were tested and compared, range analyses were made, and the possibilities of detecting targets using impulse signals sent for various purposes in the network were examined. The article presents measurable properties of 5G signals that allow one to detect targets. Also, possibilities of exploiting 5G signalling for radar applications are provided. Moreover, the main limitations of using 5G waveforms and the general 5G architecture for radar purposes are discussed. Finally, a preliminary concept validation is shown with experimental results of car detection using 5G network-based passive radar. PubDate:

Pages: 24 - 33 Abstract: Designed as the primary transport protocol of delay/disruption-tolerant networking (DTN) in space, Licklider Transmission Protocol (LTP) is expected to provide reliable data delivery service in a challenging networking environment regardless of presence of random link disruptions and/or extremely long propagation delays. The NASA has implemented the use of DTN protocol on the International Space Station for data delivery to the earth ground station. However, there is a lack of a performance evaluation of LTP for its use in the space station communications, especially in presence of link disruption. In this article, a study using a PC-based experimental infrastructure is presented in evaluating the performance of LTP for reliable data delivery from the space station to the ground stations. Realistic experiment results are presented with a focus on the effect of link disruption occurred either over the downlink or over the uplink. The effect of data loss due to channel error is also investigated. PubDate:

Pages: 34 - 50 Abstract: The proliferation of unmanned aerial system (UAS) technology has made counter unmanned aerial systems (C-UAS) a ubiquitous weapon in UAS conflicts. The advancement of UAS (drones) has elevated them to be highly relied upon assets for military applications and they have become a weapon of choice for nonstate groups with nefarious intent. These groups employ the technology for surveillance, battlespace management, propaganda, and aerial strike attacks, often to considerable effect. Radars are the primary sensor for most C-UAS to combat threat UAS. They provide persistent detection, tracking, and classification at ranges beyond visual line of sight (LOS). Additionally, they are capable of 24/7 operation in all-weather conditions. This article provides insight on future radar advancements for C-UAS. Prior to describing radar advancements, a detailed overview of existing challenges and current solutions is presented. The challenges are expounded upon to provide an understanding of how they impact radar performance. Existing radar solutions are also discussed providing insight into how C-UAS radar challenges are being solved today. This article provides insight into what is on the technological horizon for C-UAS radars. PubDate:
