• Abstract summary: The RASPNet dataset exceeds 16 TB in size and comprises 100 realistic scenarios compiled over a variety of topographies and land types from across the contiguous United States. RASPNet consists of 10,000 clutter realizations from an airborne radar setting, which can be used to benchmark radar and complex-valued learning algorithms. We outline its construction, organization, and several applications, including a transfer learning example to demonstrate how RASPNet can be used for realistic adaptive radar processing scenarios.

• Abstract: We present a large-scale dataset for radar adaptive signal processing (RASP) applications to support the development of data-driven models within the adaptive radar community. The dataset, RASPNet, exceeds 16 TB in size and comprises 100 realistic scenarios compiled over a variety of topographies and land types from across the contiguous United States. For each scenario, RASPNet consists of 10,000 clutter realizations from an airborne radar setting, which can be used to benchmark radar and complex-valued learning algorithms. RASPNet intends to fill a prominent gap in the availability of a large-scale, realistic dataset that standardizes the evaluation of adaptive radar processing techniques and complex-valued neural networks. We outline its construction, organization, and several applications, including a transfer learning example to demonstrate how RASPNet can be used for realistic adaptive radar processing scenarios.

We show that PDMs succeed in generating images with complex and realistic structures, but that sampling time remains an issue.

  This paper introduces a method based on a deep neural network (DNN) that is perfectly capable of processing radar data from extremely thinned radar apertures. The proposed DNN processing can provide both aliasing-free radar imaging and super-resolution. It simultaneously delivers nearly the same resolution and image quality as would be achieved with a fully occupied array.

  We characterize our data-driven approach to space-time adaptive processing (STAP) radar. We generate a rich example dataset of received radar signals by randomly placing targets of variable strengths in a predetermined region. For each data sample within this region, we generate heatmap tensors in range, azimuth, and elevation of the output power of a beamformer. In an airborne scenario, the moving radar creates a sequence of these time-indexed image stacks, resembling a video.
