Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 2Classification of Low Probability of Intercept Radar Waveforms Using Gabor Wavelets(Gazi Univ, Fac Engineering Architecture, 2021) Ergezer, HalitLow Probability of Intercept (LPI Radar) is a class of radar with specific technical characteristics that make it very difficult to intercept with electronic support systems and radar warning receivers. Because of their properties as low power, variable frequency, wide bandwidth, LPI radar waveforms are difficult to intercept by ESM systems. In recent years, studies on the classification of waveforms used by these types of radar have been accelerated. In this study, Time-Frequency Images (TFI) has been obtained from the LPI radars waveforms by using Choi-Williams Distribution method. From these images, feature vectors have been generated using Gabor Wavelet transform. In contrast to many methods in the literature, waveform classification has been performed by directly comparing the feature vectors obtained without using any machine learning method. With the method we propose, classification accuracies were obtained at intervals of 2 dB between -20 dB and 10 dB and performed at reasonable classification accuracy rates up to -8 dB SNR value. Better results than the best reported in the literature were obtained for some signal types. The results obtained for all waveform types are given in comparison with the results of the existing methods in the literature.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 6Multi-Objective Trajectory Planning for Slung-Load Quadrotor System(Ieee-inst Electrical Electronics Engineers inc, 2021) Ergezer, HalitIn this article, multi-objective trajectory planning has been carried out for a quadrotor carrying a slung load. The goal is to obtain non-dominated solutions for path length, mission duration, and dissipated energy cost functions. These costs are optimized by imposing constraints on the slung-load quadrotor system's endpoints, borders, obstacles, and dynamical equations. The dynamic model of a slung-load quadrotor system is used in the Euler-Lagrange formulation. Although the differential flatness feature is mostly used in this system's trajectory planning, a fully dynamic model has been used in our study. A new multi-objective Genetic Algorithm has been developed to solve path planning, aiming to optimize trajectory length, mission time, and energy consumed during the mission. The solution process has a three-phase algorithm: Phase-1 is about randomly generating waypoints, Phase-2 is about constructing the initial non-dominated pool, and the final phase, Phase-3, is obtaining the solution. In addition to conventional genetic operators, simple genetic operators are proposed to improve the trajectories locally. Pareto Fronts have been obtained corresponding to exciting scenarios. The method has been tested, and results have been presented at the end. A comparison of the solutions obtained with MOGA operators and MOPSO over hypervolume values is also presented.
