Principles of biological echolocation applied to radar sensing: applying biomimetic sensors to achieve autonomous navigation Universiteit Antwerpen
This article introduces the application of principles from biological echolocation to radar sensing. A novel biomimetic radar sensor is presented whose features are based on the relevant morphology of a bat. Signal properties accessible to bats as well as biologically feasible processing techniques are discussed, and we show how they translate to the domain of pulseecho radar. We demonstrate that by applying these techniques, our radar system ...
