This comprehensive book gives an overview of how cognitive systems and artificial intelligence (AI) can be used in electronic warfare (EW). Readers will learn how EW systems respond more quickly and ...effectively to battlefield conditions where sophisticated radars and spectrum congestion put a high priority on EW systems that can characterize and classify novel waveforms, discern intent, and devise and test countermeasures. Specific techniques are covered for optimizing a cognitive EW system as well as evaluating its ability to learn new information in real time.The book presents AI for electronic support (ES), including characterization, classification, patterns of life, and intent recognition. Optimization techniques, including temporal tradeoffs and distributed optimization challenges are also discussed. The issues concerning real-time in-mission machine learning and suggests some approaches to address this important challenge are presented and described. The book covers electronic battle management, data management, and knowledge sharing. Evaluation approaches, including how to show that a machine learning system can learn how to handle novel environments, are also discussed. Written by experts with first-hand experience in AI-based EW, this is the first book on in-mission real-time learning and optimization.
This book is designed for courses that combine digital logic design with computer organization/architecture or that teach these subjects as a two-course sequence. The book begins with a modern ...approach by rigorously covering the fundamentals of digital logic design and then introduces Hardware Description Languages (HDLs). Featuring examples of the two most widely-used HDLs, VHDL and Verilog, the first half of the text prepares the reader for the design of a MIPS processor which is discussed in the second half of the book. By the end of the book, readers will be able to build their own microprocessor and will have a top-to-bottom understanding of how it works, even if they have no formal background in design or architecture beyond an introductory class. The authors combine an engaging and humorous writing style with an updated and hands-on approach to digital design.

Data-collecting instruments in the form of a questionnaire. Analytical techniques descriptive data to describe the validity, practicalities, and effectiveness of interactive multimedia-based learning media. The results of this study indicate that interactive multimedia-based learning media on subjects of electronics material power DC-DC converter and AC-AC converter is valid, practical, and effective.
This handbook will offer guidance on selecting, specifying, and using the optimum sensor for any given application. The editor-in-chief, Jon Wilson, has years of experience in the sensor industry and ...leads workshops and seminars on sensor-related topics. In addition to background information on sensor technology, measurement, and data acquisition, the handbook provides detailed information on each type of sensor technology, covering technology fundamentals, sensor types, selecting and specifying sensors, applicable standards (w/ urls of related web sites), design techniques and tips. The handbook also contains information on the latest MEMS and nanotechnology sensor applications.
This comprehensive resource provides theoretical formulation for detecting and geolocating non-cooperative emitters. Implementation of geolocation algorithms are discussed, as well as performance ...prediction of a hypothetical passive location system for systems analysis or vulnerability calculation. Comparison of novel direction finding and geolocation algorithms to classical forms are also included. Rooted in statistical signal processing and array processing theory, this book also provides an overview of the application of novel detection and estimation algorithms to real world problems in EW.The book is divided into three parts: detection, angle of arrival estimation, and geolocation. Each section begins with an introductory chapter covering the relevant signal processing theory (either detection or estimation), then provides a series of chapters covering specific methods to achieve the desired end-product. MATLAB(R) code is provided to assist readers with relevant probability and statistics, RF propagation, atmospheric absorption, and noise, giving readers an understanding of the implementation of the algorithms in the book, as well as developing new approaches to solving problems. Packed with problem sets and examples, this book strikes a balance between introductory texts and reference manuals, making it useful for novice as well as advanced practitioners.
