Distinguished Speaker Seminar: Fully Adaptive Radar
Dr. Muralidhar Rangaswamy, Sensors Directorate Air Force Research Laboratory, WPAFB, OH
Abstract:
This seminar will provide an overview of adaptive radar processing from the standpoint of bringing to bear optimally and adaptively, all available degrees of freedom on transmit and receive to address the problem of detection, tracking, and classification from a single as well as a multi-sensor perspective. The idea of closed loop radar processing will be introduced. Pertinent research challenges will be identified and ameliorating solutions will be discussed. Important issues of training data heterogeneity, computational cost, waveform optimization and design for closed loop radar detection and tracking as well as joint transmit-receive adaptive radar processing will be presented.
Biography:
Muralidhar Rangaswamy received the B.E. degree in Electronics Engineering from Bangalore University, Bangalore, India in 1985 and the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from Syracuse University, Syracuse, NY, in 1992. He is presently employed as the Senior Advisor for Radar Research at the RF Exploitation Branch within the Sensors Directorate of the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL). Prior to this he has held industrial and academic appointments. His research interests include radar signal processing, spectrum estimation, modeling non-Gaussian interference phenomena, and statistical communication theory. He has co-authored more than 200 refereed journal and conference record papers in the areas of his research interests. Additionally, he is a contributor to 9 books and is a co-inventor on 3 U.S. patents. He received the IEEE Warren White Radar Award in 2013, the 2013 Affiliate Societies Council-Dayton Outstanding Scientist Award and the 2005 IEEE-AESS Fred Nathanson memorial outstanding young radar engineer award. He was elected as a Fellow of the IEEE in January 2006 with the citation “for contributions to mathematical techniques for radar space-time adaptive processing”. He received the 2012 and 2005 Charles Ryan basic research award from the Sensors Directorate of AFRL.

Agenda
Parking Information for Kettering Labs, Rm 306:
Everyone attending the event needs to get a parking permit from the parking lot attendant in the Parking Lot C.
The directions to the Parking lot C are given below:
If you are coming from the Eastside of Dayton, take route 35 West towards Dayton, merge on to I-75 South and take the first exit, Edwin Moses Blvd (Exit 51). Go towards the BP Gas station, Turn left at the signal near the BP gas station. Follow Edwin Moses and turn RIGHT at Stewart Rd. You will see our campus from there. From Stewart, turn RIGHT at Brown Street (also called as Erma Bombeck Rd). Our campus is on both sides of Brown Street. Turn LEFT at Keifaber Rd. You will come thru our student neighborhood to a T-junction infront of the Rec Center. Turn left and pull into the attendant booth for the parking lot C in front of our building, the Kettering Labs. Please ask for a visitor permit from the attendant in the booth and hang it in your car. You can come close to our building and park in the visitor parking spots or any available parking. The meeting room is 306, Kettering Labs. It is in the third floor of the Kettering Labs building.
This event has no charge. You are allowed to bring packed lunches into the facility/room.
