Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Radar technology has become an indispensable tool in modern remote sensing applications, offering unique capabilities for imaging, detection, and environmental monitoring. The advent of novel radar systems, represented by the multi-input-multiple-output (MIMO) radar, networked radar, cognitive radar, distributed radar, and passive radar, has led to a heightened focus on the impact of radar system resources on overall performance. These resources encompass factors such as site location, transmission power, topology, operating frequency, handling resource, beam scheduling, and signal waveforms. Consequently, research conducted on radar resource management is of theoretical importance and practical significance for the domains of radar imaging and remote sensing.
We are pleased to invite researchers and professionals to contribute to this Special Issue, which aims to explore cutting-edge developments in radar resource management in sensing and imaging applications, bringing together contributions from academia and industry.
By addressing challenges in radar resource management, this Special Issue seeks to advance the understanding and utility of radar technologies in remote sensing.
This Special Issue aligns closely with the journal's scope, focusing on innovative radar resource management techniques (specifically resource management technologies based on artificial intelligence algorithms such as reinforcement learning and deep learning) and their impact on remote sensing, environmental monitoring, and other critical fields.
This Special Issue welcomes original research articles and reviews on a wide range of topics related to radar resource management.
The objective of this Special Issue is to present the most recent advancements in resource management techniques in the domain of radar remote sensing. In addition, it will explore the potential for managing radar resources to enhance the performance of existing radar systems in carrying out remote sensing missions.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following topics:
- Networked radar topology optimization;
- Discrete/multiple bands integrated utilization;
- Radar mission planning;
- Distributed resource management techniques;
- multi-function integrated system resource optimization;
- Artificial Intelligence (AI) based radar resource management;
- Radar sensing and application;
- Other applications of resource management in radar remote sensing.
