Advanced Signal Processing Handbook : Theory and Implementation for Radar Sonar and Medical Imaging Real Time System

This handbook offers an introduction to the principles and applications of advanced signal processing; develops a generic processing structure that takes advantage of the similarities that exist among radar, sonar, and medical imaging systems; and integrates conventional and nonlinear processing schemes. In addition, the 20 chapters summarize the state-of-the-art application of advanced processing concepts and point out their applicability, benefits, and potential; disseminate the results of research funded by government and military agencies; develop a general concept for implementing adaptive, synthetic aperture processing schemes; illustrate concepts, techniques, and applications with about 400 figures, photographs, and images; and bridge a variety of related fields to provide a reference for current and emerging applications. The editor, Stergios Stergiopoulos, is associated with U. of Western Ontario and the Defence and Civil Institute of Environmental Medicine of the Canadian DND. Annotation c.
