This paper presents a monitoring of water leakage form the hydro-power plant canal using Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and Ground Penetrating radar (GPR) data. The SAR based monitoring considers soil moisture estimation and moisture detection using Fourier descriptors. The GPR based automatic data interpretation uses the Fourier descriptors for detection of potential water leakage within the canal. The second and fourth order spectral moments, cepstrum, spectral entropy and centroid were used for detection of potential wet areas using SAR and GPR data. The experimental results showed that the SAR data can be used for detection of water leakage, when the surface is already wet, meanwhile the GPR data can be used for determine the water leakage location inside the canal. The GPR measurements were taken on the crone or top of the canal, as well as at the side of the canal. The acquired data were analyzed using Fourier descriptors. Fourier descriptors show good detection of potential wet areas within SAR and GPR data.

COBISS.SI-ID: 15866134Abstract-This paper presents the synthetic aperture radar principles. The introduction to signal processing for synthetic aperture radars is made using processing of coherent digitized radar. The SAR properties in range and azimuth directions are described and signal processing for target reflection is presented. The received signal is theoretically described. The SAR raw data, which represent the revived image is theoretically presented. The image formation algorithm is presented using pulse compression waveforms for high range resolution and optimal transmitter power, Doppler processing for clutter rejection and enhanced crossrange imaging is presented. The synthetic aperture radar image formation is described using range migration and chirp scaling algorithms.

COBISS.SI-ID: 14685462Manual performance evaluation of tactical communication networks, using OPNET Modeler simulation results, is a very time-consuming task, which also needs a high degree of expert operational knowledge. The developed expert system, with the help of a knowledge base, will automate this process and suggest steps for solving the communication problems of tactical networks. Developed expert system for tactical network evaluation is, in combination with Tactical player, a solution, which offers a deeper understanding of simulation results for a specific planned tactical mission. This leads to a development of better and more reliable tactical networks, which play a critical role in military operations
