The maximum entropy spectrum (MES), a sampled data power spectrum estimator, is applied to the enhancement of imagery obtained by synthetic array radar (SAR) imaging systems. MES offers better frequency resolution than conventional Fourier transform methods for certain signal classes. Since azimuth ground resolution in SAR systems is obtained by doppler frequency measurement of the radar return, the method is capable of enhancing the resolution of SAR maps. The principal signal requirement is adequate signal-to-noise ratio. The maximum entropy method has been tested using data obtained by the Hughes FLAMR radar system. The super-resolution capabilities of the method are demonstrated using FLAMR images of corner reflector arrays.

If three antenna units are divided into two set and two baselines are placed at right angles to each other in flight plain, in which the direction of one baseline is parallel to the actual flight direction of air vehicle, the sine and cosine function of target bearing respectively in two baseline directions can be simultaneously obtained according to the analysis principle of the direction cosine change rate. The angulations’ formula only based on Doppler frequency difference can be derived after eliminating the unknown parameters including angular velocity and wavelength by the specific value of two circular functions. The analog calculation shows that the relative error is in direct proportion to the baseline length provided that the incident wave is parallel in derivation. But the error analysis depicts that the measurement accuracy is in direct proportion to the baseline length. Moreover, the measurement error relies on mainly the accuracy of frequency measurement. Furthermore, the derived formula has irregularity in airborne axis direction. However, since the new method is not associated with wavelength, this new DF only based on Doppler frequency difference will be more adapted to passive sounding as compared with phase interference method.

In recent years, researchers have developed a new method of measuring the pressure on the surface using sensitive paints. This is an optical technique for determining surface pressure distributions by measuring changes in the intensity, emitted by certain excited molecules. The main advantage of the method over traditional techniques is the high resolution of the information. The only limitation of the resolution of a global map generated by the PSP (pressure-sensitive paint) technique is given by the capabilities of the image capture device. This paper describes the development of a technology for obtaining pressure-sensitive paint, in laboratory conditions, as an advanced measurement technique. The method has an application in many fields such as automotive, aerospace, or even medical.
