We have extensive and world-recognised expertise in sensor systems across a broad set of technologies. These encompass sensors across the electromagnetic spectrum, ranging from VHF to mmW Radar through far-IR to UV Spectroscopy.
Topics covered include surveillance; target acquisition; pre- and post-detector processing; counter measures and protective measures; hyperspectral imaging; environmental measurements using ground based synthetic aperture radar; MPRF radar waveform optimisation; low RCS target detection; and measurement of mmW properties of dielectric materials.
Our research interests cover not only the above fields but also allied topics concerned with sensor fusion, such as evolutionary optimisation, image processing for radar, E/O, IR and UV, cooperative guidance of missiles and UAVs and missile homing systems (Radar, IR and E/O).
Additionally, we can provide:
- Performance measurement of transmitters and receivers;
- Consultancy on instrumentation and prototyping;
- Novel Camouflage Materials;
- Infrared simulation systems;
- Electro-optic electronic warfare systems;
- Robust image processing algorithms;
- Hyper-spectral imaging.
We also offer substantive laboratory facilities including:
- Anechoic chamber for measurements in the Giga hertz range;
- Vector Network Analyser to 110GHz;
- Performance measurement of transmitters and receivers;
- UV to far-IR spectroscopy;
- Hyperspectral and broadband imaging;
- Simulation;
- Instrumentation and prototyping.
