Introduction of Session Organizers
With the growing demands for maritime rights protection, maritime security,
and ocean resource development, radar has become a core means of marine
information perception. It faces a series of formidable challenges,
including complex sea clutter suppression, weak target detection, and
adaptation to high sea states. This special session focuses on new theories,
methods, and technologies of radar signal processing for marine information
perception, highlighting cutting-edge directions such as sea clutter
modeling and characterization, advanced detection and estimation theory,
intelligent target recognition, distributed cooperative sensing, and
multi-source information fusion. It aims to bring together experts and
scholars worldwide to share the latest research findings, foster academic
exchange and technological integration, and promote innovative developments
in radar ocean remote sensing and perception technology.
