Defence 2011
(SSPD 2011)
Organised by UDRC in Signal Processing
Sponsored by the U.K. Ministry of Defence (MOD)
27-29 September, 2011 @ Imperial College London, UK
IMPORTANT DATES
Paper Submission Deadline: June 1, 2011
Paper Submission Deadline Extended: June 24, 2011
Notification of Acceptance: July 24, 2011
Notification of Acceptance Extended: August 4, 2011
Camera-Ready Submissions: September 14, 2011
Topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
Array Signal Processing
Radar, Sonar and Audio Signal Processing
Signal Processing for Security
Multimodal Signal Processing
Sensor Fusion
Image and Video Classification
Distributed Signal Processing for Wireless Sensor Networks
Signal Processing for Communications
In all these topics, emphasis of the Conference is given on the following areas that
play a substantial role in improving the performance of defence systems:
Sensor Array Calibration: Signal processing technologies that allow sensor arrays
to be calibrated or recalibrated whilst in-use to compensating for variations in both
the positions and the electronic characteristics of the sensors all of which can change
with time.
Broadband Signal Processing: Signal processing that separates broadband signals
received at a sensor array into the signals from individual targets, enabling correct
Detection, Classification and Localisation (DCL) of multiple simultaneous targets.
Detection: Signal processing technologies that detect when received signals contain
contributions from a target, particularly against a background of clutter (or reverberation)
and interference.
Classification: Signal processing technologies that identify or categorise targets.
Superresolution Direction Finding & Localisation: Signal processing technologies that
yield more accurate target bearing estimates (and, where relevant, range estimates) than
conventional localisation techniques, in particular when targets are close together in angle
and/or range.
Multipath Mitigation: Signal processing technologies that enable the Detection, Classification
and Localisation (DCL) of targets in the presence of multipath - as multipath can render classic
DCL systems ineffective.
SWAP: Signal processing technologies that enable the use of sensor hardware of reduced size,
weight and power (SWAP).
Non-Stationary Processing: Signal processing technologies which enable the DCL of fleeting
or rapidly manoeuvring targets, or using non-rigid sensor arrays.
