Therefore, it is an urgent problem to study the ISAC technologies for Ad Hoc networks oriented to Internet of Things and the Internet of Vehicles. The method and technical scheme of the sensing-communication signal integration for Ad Hoc network are proposed, which can both guarantee the communication performance and improve the accuracy of ranging sensing estimation. A resource allocation scheme and its corresponding iterative optimization algorithm are proposed to deal with the time-spectrum resource conflict between sensing and communication tasks, in order to achieve the high reliability and strong stability of the ISAC Ad Hoc network collaborative awareness ability under limited resources. A hardware-software module prototype of sensing-communication integration is designed to guarantee high-precision clock synchronization of the whole network when Global Navigation Satellite System(GNSS) signal is weak, ensuring the collaborative sensing ability of the network, and providing the collaborative transmission support in long distances communication. In conclusion, an ISAC Ad Hoc system framework is built, including the integrated design of the sensing-communication signal and the joint optimization scheme of time-frequency resource; the corresponding hardware-software platform is developed, consisting of 4 ISAC module prototypes. In the field experiments of the corresponding platform within a range of 2 km, the proposed method can realize that the communication rate is above 320 kbps, the packet loss rate is less than 0.05%, and the sensing accuracy is less than 10 m..

With the presence of magnetic field, the peak power output of the frequency multiplier and its distribution in the parameter space (Edc, Eac) are carefully analyzed. The study shows that in the parameter plane of (Edc, Eac), the magnetic field has little influence on the peak size of the second and third harmonic of output power, but the magnetic field will broaden the peak area of the harmonic output power, which can improve the probability of output peak power in the parameter space of (Edc, Eac). When Eac is determined, the position of the peak harmonic emission power will be affected by the Bloch oscillation frequency fB generated by the DC electric field, the modulated Bloch oscillation frequency fMB generated by the AC electric field, and the cyclotron oscillation frequency fc caused by the magnetic field. The results indicate that the THz frequency multiplier based on semiconductor superlattice is a potential THz wave generator..

WANG Hongqiang, CHENGYongqiang, HUA Xiaoqiang, YANGQi, and LIU Kang
Radar target detection is often faced with complex clutter characteristics. Classical detection methods are usually suitable for some specific scenarios. However, if the detection background changes, its detection performance will suffer from a great degradation. In order to effectively improve the detection performancRadar target detection is often faced with complex clutter characteristics. Classical detection methods are usually suitable for some specific scenarios. However, if the detection background changes, its detection performance will suffer from a great degradation. In order to effectively improve the detection performance under different clutter backgrounds, this paper proposes a matrix information geometric detector based on manifold ISOmetric MAPping(ISOMAP). This method first reformulates the problem of signal detection into a discriminative problem between two points on the matrix manifold; then, according to the training sample data and local isometric mapping, a projection matrix is adaptively learned, which transforms the matrix manifold into a discriminative low-dimensional manifold to enhance the separability between the target and the clutter; finally, the proposed algorithm is verified by simulated clutter and measured data. Experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively improve the detection performance in comparison with the classical detectors..

HU Weidong, XU Zhihao, JIANG Huanyu, LIU Qingguo, and TAN Zhen
Terahertz Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave(THz FMCW) imaging technology has attracted extensive attention in the field of THz Nondestructive Testing(NDT) because of its high power, miniaturization, low cost, three-dimensional imaging and other characteristics.

However, due to the limitation of microwave and terahertz devices, the terahertz signal bandwidth is difficult to expand, which restricts the range resolution of imaging. Although high carrier frequency can achieve large broadband, the accompanying low penetrability and low power will limit the application scenario of THz FMCW imaging system. Therefore, focusing on the field of terahertz wave nondestructive testing, this paper proposes a time-division frequency-division multiplexing 114~500 GHz ultra-wideband terahertz signal generation method, which is based on the quasi-optical design of multiband common aperture to achieve the common aperture of ultra-wideband signals. In addition, a multiband fusion algorithm is proposed to achieve effective fusion of ultra-wideband signals, and the range resolution is improved to 460 μm. The effectiveness of the system and algorithm is verified by artificially designed multilayer composite materials, and the high-resolution 3D imaging results of Integrated Circuit(IC) chips are obtained..

FAN Lei, WANG Hongqiang, YANG Qi, ZENG Yang, and DENG Bin
Attitude estimation of satellite targets with the Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar(ISAR) image sequences is a significant but challenging task. Existing estimation methods are normally focused on the extraction of critical corners or linear components from the image, which are hard to meet the real-time requirement andAttitude estimation of satellite targets with the Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar(ISAR) image sequences is a significant but challenging task. Existing estimation methods are normally focused on the extraction of critical corners or linear components from the image, which are hard to meet the real-time requirement and insufficient to exploit the prior of imaging characteristics. This paper presents a method for estimating the attitude of satellite targets based on imaging characteristics and regression networks. The imaging characteristics of satellite targets under various attitudes are firstly determined in advance and serve as the theoretical basis for subsequent dataset annotation. Thus, different from the traditional classification problem, a regression network and an estimation framework suited for attitude estimation are established. Finally, electro-magnetic simulation in millimeter frequency is carried out to validate that the proposed method can control the average attitude estimation error within 3.5°..
