当元数据信息丢失,或者选择File→Open External File → Landsat → GeoTIFF ,打开GeoTIFF格式文件时,需要手动输 入ENVI Landsat Calibration Dialog对话框中的参数(默认参 数会自动添加),以不带元数据的Landsat7_ GeoTIFF格式文 件数据为例,操作过程如下:
y=a*x+b(线性函数关系)
相对定标是确定各像元之间、各探测器之间、各
波谱段之间以及不同时间测量的辐射度量相对值。
传感器辐射定标分为三个方面内容:
①发射前的实验室定标; ②基于星载定标器的星上定标; ③发射后的定标(场地定标)。
注:我们常用的定标参数,有使用实验室定标的结果(如高分辨 率传感器QuickBird、WorldView-1等);也有使用实验室定标与 星上定标相结合的参数(如NOAA、MSS等);由于设备老化, Landsat TM5的定标参数有用实验室定标的(2003年前),也有 用经过场地定标的参数(2003年后);

1316.4.Significance and Use4.1Within the present state of the radiographic art,this guide is generally applicable to available materials,processes,and techniques where industrial radiographic films are used as the recording media.4.2Limitations —This guide does not take into consider-ation special benefits and limitations resulting from the use of nonfilm recording media or readouts such as paper,tapes,xeroradiography,fluoroscopy,and electronic image intensifi-cation devices.Although reference is made to documents that may be used in the identification and grading,where appli-cable,of representative discontinuities in common metal cast-ings and welds,no attempt has been made to set standards of acceptance for any material or production process.Radiogra-phy will be consistent in sensitivity and resolution only if the effect of all details of techniques,such as geometry,film,filtration,viewing,etc.,is obtained and maintained.5.Quality of Radiographs5.1To obtain quality radiographs,it is necessary to consider as a minimum the following list of items.Detailed information on each item is further described in this guide.5.1.1Radiation source (X-ray or gamma),5.1.2V oltage selection (X-ray),5.1.3Source size (X-ray or gamma),5.1.4Ways and means to eliminate scattered radiation,5.1.5Film system class,5.1.6Source to film distance,5.1.7Image quality indicators (IQI’s),5.1.8Screens and filters,5.1.9Geometry of part or component configuration,5.1.10Identification and location markers,and 5.1.11Radiographic quality level.6.Radiographic Quality Level6.1Information on the design and manufacture of image quality indicators (IQI’s)can be found in Practices E 747,E 801,E 1025,and E 1742.6.2The quality level usually required for radiography is 2%(2-2T when using hole type IQI)unless a higher or lower quality is agreed upon between the purchaser and the supplier.At the 2%subject contrast level,three quality levels of inspection,2-1T,2-2T,and 2-4T,are available through the design and application of the IQI (Practice E 1025,Table 1).Other levels of inspection are available in Practice E 1025Table 1.The level of inspection specified should be based on the service requirements of the product.Great care should be taken in specifying quality levels 2-1T,1-1T,and 1-2T by first determining that these quality levels can be maintained in production radiography.N OTE 2—The first number of the quality level designation refers to IQI thickness expressed as a percentage of specimen thickness;the second number refers to the diameter of the IQI hole that must be visible on the radiograph,expressed as a multiple of penetrameter thickness,T .6.3If IQI’s of material radiographically similar to that being examined are not available,IQI’s of the required dimensions but of a lower-absorption material may be used.6.4The quality level required using wire IQI’s shall be equivalent to the 2-2T level of Practice E 1025unless a higher or lower quality level is agreed upon between purchaser and supplier.Table 4of Practice E 747gives a list of various hole-type IQI’s and the diameter of the wires of corresponding EPS with the applicable 1T,2T,and 4T holes in the plaque IQI.Appendix X1of Practice E 747gives the equation for calcu-lating other equivalencies,if needed.7.Energy Selection7.1X-ray energy affects image quality.In general,the lower the energy of the source utilized the higher the achievable radiographic contrast,however,other variables such as geom-etry and scatter conditions may override the potential advan-tage of higher contrast.For a particular energy,a range of thicknesses which are a multiple of the half value layer,may be radiographed to an acceptable quality level utilizing a particu-lar X-ray machine or gamma ray source.In all cases the specified IQI (penetrameter)quality level must be shown on the radiograph.In general,satisfactory results can normally be obtained for X-ray energies between 100kV to 500kV in a range between 2.5to 10half value layers (HVL)of material thickness (see Table 1).This range may be extended by as much as a factor of 2in some situations for X-ray energies in the 1to 25MV range primarily because of reduced scatter.4Available from American National Standards Institute (ANSI),25W.43rd St.,4th Floor,New York,NY 10036.5Available from ernment Printing Office

Rd.,Springfield,V A22161.8.Radiographic Equivalence Factors8.1The radiographic equivalence factor of a material is that factor by which the thickness of the material must be multi-plied to give the thickness of a “standard”material (often steel)which has the same absorption.Radiographic equivalence factors of several of the more common metals are given in Table 2,with steel arbitrarily assigned a factor of 1.0.The factors may be used:8.1.1To determine the practical thickness limits for radia-tion sources for materials other than steel,and8.1.2To determine exposure factors for one metal from exposure techniques for other metals.9.Film9.1Various industrial radiographic film are available to meet the needs of production radiographic work.However,definite rules on the selection of film are difficult to formulate because the choice depends on individual user requirements.Some user requirements are as follows:radiographic quality levels,exposure times,and various cost factors.Several methods are available for assessing image quality levels (see Test Method E 746,and Practices E 747and E 801).Informa-tion about specific products can be obtained from the manu-facturers.9.2Various industrial radiographic films are manufactured to meet quality level and production needs.Test Method E 1815provides a method for film manufacturer classification of film systems.A film system consist of the film andassociated film processing ers may obtain a classi-fication table from the film manufacturer for the film system used in production radiography.A choice of film class can be made as provided in Test Method E 1815.Additional specific details regarding classification of film systems is provided in Test Method E 1815.ANSI Standards PH1.41,PH4.8,T9.1,and T9.2provide specific details and requirements for film manufacturing.10.Filters10.1Definition —Filters are uniform layers of material placed between the radiation source and the film.10.2Purpose —The purpose of filters is to absorb the softer components of the primary radiation,thus resulting in one or several of the following practical advantages:10.2.1Decreasing scattered radiation,thus increasing con-trast.10.2.2Decreasing undercutting,thus increasing contrast.10.2.3Decreasing contrast of parts of varying thickness.10.3Location —Usually the filter will be placed in one of the following two locations:10.3.1As close as possible to the radiation source,which minimizes the size of the filter and also the contribution of the filter itself to scattered radiation to the film.10.3.2Between the specimen and the film in order to absorb preferentially the scattered radiation from the specimen.It should be noted that lead foil and other metallic screens (see 13.1)fulfill this function.10.4Thickness and Filter Material —The thickness and material of the filter will vary depending upon the following:10.4.1The material radiographed.10.4.2Thickness of the material radiographed.10.4.3Variation of thickness of the material radiographed.10.4.4Energy spectrum of the radiation used.10.4.5The improvement desired (increasing or decreasing contrast).Filter thickness and material can be calculated or determined empirically.11.Masking11.1Masking or blocking (surrounding specimens or cov-ering thin sections with an absorptive material)is helpful in reducing scattered radiation.Such a material can also be usedTABLE 1Typical Steel HVL Thickness in Inches [mm]forCommon EnergiesEnergyThickness,Inches [mm]120kV 0.10[2.5]150kV 0.14[3.6]200kV

back-scattered radiation can be reduced by confining the radiation beam to the smallest practical cross section and by placing lead behind thefilm.In some cases either or both the back lead screen and the lead contained in the back of the cassette orfilm holder will furnish adequate protection against back-scattered radiation.In other instances, this must be supplemented by additional lead shielding behind the cassette orfilm holder.12.2If there is any question about the adequacy of protec-tion from back-scattered radiation,a characteristic symbol (frequently a1⁄8-in.[3.2-mm]thick letter B)should be attached to the back of the cassette orfilm holder,and a radiograph made in the normal manner.If the image of this symbol appears on the radiograph as a lighter density than background, it is an indication that protection against back-scattered radia-tion is insufficient and that additional precautions must be taken.13.Screens13.1Metallic Foil Screens:13.1.1Lead foil screens are commonly used in direct contact with thefilms,and,depending upon their thickness, and composition of the specimen material,will exhibit an intensifying action at as low as90kV.In addition,any screen used in front of thefilm acts as afilter(Section10)to preferentially absorb scattered radiation arising from the speci-men,thus improving radiographic quality.The selection of lead screen thickness,or for that matter,any metallic screen thickness,is subject to the same considerations as outlined in 10.4.Lead screens lessen the scatter reaching thefilm regard-less of whether the screens permit a decrease or necessitate an increase in the radiographic exposure.To avoid image unsharp-ness due to screens,there should be intimate contact between the lead screen and thefilm during exposure.13.1.2Lead foil screens of appropriate thickness should be used whenever they improve radiographic quality or penetram-eter sensitivity or both.The thickness of the front lead screens should be selected with care to avoid excessivefiltration in the radiography of thin or light alloy materials,particularly at the lower kilovoltages.In general,there is no exposure advantage to the use of0.005in.in front and back lead screens below125 kV in the radiography of1⁄4-in.[6.35-mm]or lesser thickness steel.As the kilovoltage is increased to penetrate thicker sections of steel,however,there is a significant exposure advantage.In addition to intensifying action,the back lead screens are used as protection against back-scattered radiation (see Section12)and their thickness is only important for this function.As exposure energy is increased to penetrate greater thicknesses of a given subject material,it is customary to increase lead screen thickness.For radiography using radioac-tive sources,the minimum thickness of the front lead screen should be0.005in.[0.13mm]for iridium-192,and0.010in.[0.25mm]for cobalt-60.13.2Other Metallic Screen Materials:13.2.1Lead oxide screens perform in a similar manner to lead foil screens except that their equivalence in lead foil thickness approximates0.0005in.[0.013mm].13.2.2Copper screens have somewhat less absorption and intensification than lead screens,but may provide somewhat better radiographic sensitivity with higher energy above1MV.13.2.3Gold,tantalum,or other heavy metal screens may be used in cases where lead cannot be used.13.3Fluorescent Screens—Fluorescent screens may be used as required providing the required image quality is achieved.Proper selection of thefluorescent screen is required to minimize image unsharpness.Technical information about specificfluorescent screen products can be obtained from the manufacturers.Goodfilm-screen contact and screen cleanli-ness are required for successful use offluorescent screens. Additional information on the use offluorescent screens is provided in Appendix X1.13.4Screen Care—All screens should be handled carefully to avoid dents and scratches,dirt,or grease on active surfaces. Grease and lint may be removed from lead screens with a solvent.Fluorescent screens should be cleaned in accordance with the recommendations of the manufacturer.Screens show-ing evidence of physical damage should be discarded.14.Radiographic Image Quality14.1Radiographic image quality is a qualitative term used to describe the capability of a radiograph to showflaws in the area under examination.There are three fundamental compo-nents of radiographic image quality as shown in Fig.1.Each component is an important attribute when considering a specific radiographic technique or application and will be briefly discussed below.14.2Radiographic contrast between two areas of a radio-graph is the difference between thefilm densities of those areas.The degree of radiographic contrast is dependent upon both subject contrast andfilm contrast as illustrated in Fig.1.14.2.1Subject contrast is the ratio of X-ray or gamma-ray intensities transmitted by two selected portions of a specimen. Subject contrast is dependent upon the nature of the specimen (material type and thickness),the energy(spectral composition, hardness or wavelengths)of the radiation used and the intensity and distribution of scattered radiation.It is independent of time,milliamperage or source strength(curies),source distance and the characteristics of thefilm system.14.2.2Film contrast refers to the slope(steepness)of the film system characteristic curve.Film contrast is dependent upon the type offilm,the processing it receives and the amount offilm density.It also depends upon whether thefilm was exposed with lead screens(or without)or withfluorescent screens.Film contrast is independent,for most practical purposes,of the wavelength and distribution of the radiation reaching thefilm and,hence is independent of subject contrast. For further information,consult Test Method E1815.14.3Film system granularity is the objective measurement of the local density variations that produce the sensation of graininess on the radiographicfilm(for example,measured with a densitometer with a small aperture of#0.0039in.[0.1 mm]).Graininess is the subjective perception of a mottled random pattern apparent to a viewer who sees smalllocaldensity variations in an area of overall uniform density (that is,the visual impression of irregularity of silver deposit in a processed radiograph).The degree of granularity will not affect the overall spatial radiographic resolution (expressed in line pairs per mm,etc.)of the resultant image and is usually independent of exposure geometry arrangements.Granularity is affected by the applied screens,screen-film contact and film processing conditions.For further information on detailed perceptibility,consult Test Method E 1815.14.4Radiographic definition refers to the sharpness of the image (both the image outline as well as image detail).Radiographic definition is dependent upon the inherent un-sharpness of the film system and the geometry of the radio-graphic exposure arrangement (geometric unsharpness)as illustrated in Fig.1.14.4.1Inherent unsharpness (U i )is the degree of visible detail resulting from geometrical aspects within the film-screen system,that is,screen-film contact,screen thickness,total thickness of the film emulsions,whether single or double-coated emulsions,quality of radiation used (wavelengths,etc.)and the type of screen.Inherent unsharpness is independent of exposure geometry arrangements.14.4.2Geometric unsharpness (U g )determines the degree of visible detail resultant from an “in-focus”exposure arrange-ment consisting of the source-to-film-distance,object-to-film-distance and focal spot size.Fig.2(a)illustrates these condi-tions.Geometric unsharpness is given by the equation:U g 5Ft /d o(1)where:U g =geometric unsharpness,F =maximum projected dimension of radiation source,t =distance from source side of specimen to film,and d o =source-object distance.N OTE 3—d o and t must be in the same units of measure;the units of U g will be in the same units as F .N OTE 4—A nomogram for the determination of U g is given in Fig.3(inch-pound units).Fig.4represents a nomogram in metric units.Example:Given:Source-object distance (d o )=40in.,Source size (F)=500mils,andSource side of specimen to film distance (t)=1.5in.Draw a straight line (dashed in Fig.3)between 500mils on the F scale and 1.5in.on the t scale.Note the point on intersection (P)of this line with the pivot line.Draw a straight line (solid in Fig.3)from 40in.on the d o scale through point P and extend to the U g scale.Intersection of this line with the U g scale gives geometrical unsharpness in mils,which in the example is 19mils.Inasmuch as the source size,F ,is usually fixed for a given radiation source,the value of U g is essentially controlled by the simple d o /t ratio.Geometric unsharpness (U g )can have a significant effect on the quality of the radiograph;therefore source-to-film-distance (SFD)selection is important.The geometric unsharpness (U g )equation,Eq 1,is for information and guidance and provides a means for determining geometric unsharpness values.The amount or degree of unsharpness should be minimized when establishing the radiographic technique.Radiographic Image QualityRadiographic ContrastFilm System Granularity Radiographic DefinitionSubject Contrast Film

Geometry15.Radiographic Distortion15.1The radiographic image of an object or feature within an object may be larger or smaller than the object or feature itself,because the penumbra of the shadow is rarely visible in a radiograph.Therefore,the image will be larger if the object or feature is larger than the source of radiation,and smaller if object or feature is smaller than the source.The degree of reduction or enlargement will depend on the source-to-object and object-to-film distances,and on the relative sizes of the source and the object or feature (Fig.2(b )and (c )).15.2The direction of the central beam of radiation should be perpendicular to the surface of the film whenever possible.The object image will be distorted if the film is not aligned perpendicular to the central beam.Different parts of the object image will be distorted different amount depending on the extent of the film to central beam offset (Fig.2(d )).16.Exposure Calculations or Charts16.1Development or procurement of an exposure chart or calculator is the responsibility of the individual laboratory.16.2The essential elements of an exposure chart or calcu-lator must relate the following:16.2.1Source or machine,16.2.2Material type,16.2.3Material thickness,16.2.4Film type (relative speed),16.2.5Film density,(see Note 5),16.2.6Source or source to film distance,16.2.7Kilovoltage or isotope type,N OTE

processing;time-temperature development for dry processing,and16.2.13Processing chemistry brand name,if applicable.16.3The essential elements listed in 16.2will be accurate for isotopes of the same type,but will vary with X-ray equipment of the same kilovoltage and milliampere rating.16.4Exposure charts should be developed for each X-ray machine and corrected each time a major component is replaced,such as the X-ray tube or high-voltage transformer.16.5The exposure chart should be corrected when the processing chemicals are changed to a different manufacturer’s brand or the time-temperature relationship of the processormay be adjusted to suit the exposure chart.The exposure chart,when using a dry processing method,should be corrected based upon the time-temperature changes of the processor.17.Technique File17.1It is recommended that a radiographic technique log or record containing the essential elements be maintained.17.2The radiographic technique log or record should con-tain the following:17.2.1Description,photo,or sketch of the test object illustrating marker layout,source placement,and film location.17.2.2Material type and thickness,17.2.3Source to film distance,17.2.4Film type,17.2.5Film density,(see Note 5),17.2.6Screen type andthickness,FIG.4Nomogram for Determining Geometrical Unsharpness (MetricUnits)。

However,the measure(or width of text)is narrower than the default for article, therefore line breaks will change and long equations may need re-formatting. When your article appears in the print edition of the gOMS journal,it is typeset in Monotype Times.As most authors do not own this font,it is likely that the page make-up will change with the change of font.For this reason,we ask you to ignore details such as slightly long lines,page stretching,orfigures falling out of synchronization with their citations in the text,because these details will be dealt with at a later stage.1.2.Submission of L A T E X2εarticles to the journalSubmissions to be considered for publication in Optimization Methods and Soft-ware should be sent to the appropriate

IL60439-4844,USA(e-mail:anitescu@).Optimization Methods and Software3 Authors are encouraged to submit manuscripts electronically.If e-mail submis-sion is not possible,please send an electronic version on disc.General Instructions for Authors may be found at (/journals/authors/gomsauth.asp).Only‘open-source’L A T E X2εshould be used,not proprietary systems such as TCI LaTeX or Scientific WorkPlace.Similarly,Classfiles such as REVTex4that produce a document in the style of a different publisher and journal should not be used for preference.Appropriate gaps should be left forfigures,for which original electronicfiles should be supplied.Authors should ensure that theirfigures are suitable(in terms of lettering size,etc.)for the reductions they intend.Authors who wish to incorporate Encapsulated PostScript artwork directly in their articles can do so by using Tomas Rokicki’s EPSF macros(which are supplied with the DVIPS PostScript driver).See Section2.1,which also demonstrates how to treat landscape pages.Please remember to supply any additionalfigure macros you use with your article in the preamble before begin{document}.Authors should not attempt to use implementation-specific\special’s directly.Ensure that any author-defined macros are gathered together in the sourcefile, just before the\begin{document}command.Please note that,if serious problems are encountered with the coding of a paper (missing author-defined macros,for example),it may prove necessary to divert the paper to conventional typesetting,i.e.it will be re-keyed.ing the gOMS ClassfileIf thefile gOMS2e.cls is not already in the appropriate system directory for L A T E X2εfiles,either arrange for it to be put there,or copy it to your working folder.The gOMS document style is implemented as a complete document style, not a document style option.In order to use the gOMS style,replace‘article’by ‘gOMS2e’in the\documentclass command at the beginning of your document: \documentclass{article}is replaced by\documentclass{gOMS2e}In general,the following standard document style options should not be used with the gOMS style:(1)10pt,11pt,12pt—unavailable;(2)oneside(no associated stylefile)—oneside is the default;(3)leqno and titlepage—should not be used;(4)singlecolumn—is not necessary as it is the default style.ndscape pagesIf a table or illustration is too wide tofit the standard measure,it must be turned,with its caption,through90◦ndscape illustra-tions and/or tables can be produced directly using the gOMS2e stylefile us-ing\usepackage{rotating}after\documentclass{gOMS2e}.The following com-mands can be used to produce such pages.\setcounter{figure}{2}\begin{sidewaysfigure}4Taylor&Francis and I.T.Consultant\centerline{\epsfbox{fig1.eps}}\caption{This is an example of figure caption.}\label{landfig}\end{sidewaysfigure}\setcounter{table}{0}\begin{sidewaystable}\tbl{The Largest Optical Telescopes.}\begin{tabular}{@{}llllcll}...\end{tabular}\label{tab1}\end{sidewaystable}Before anyfloat environment,use the\setcounter command as above tofix the numbering of the caption.Subsequent captions will then be automatically renum-bered accordingly.3.Additional featuresIn addition to all the standard L A T E X2εdesign elements,gOMS style includes a separate command for specifying short versions of the authors’names and the journal title for running headlines on the left-hand(verso)and right-hand(recto) pages,respectively(see Section4.4).In general,once you have used this additional gOMS2e.cls feature in your document,do not process it with a standard L A T E X2εstylefile.3.1.Footnotes to article titles and authors’namesOn the title page,the\thanks command may be used to produce a footnote to either the title or authors’names.Footnote symbols should be used in the order:†(coded as\dagger),‡(\ddagger),§(\S),¶(\P), (\|),††(\dagger\dagger),‡‡(\ddagger\ddagger),§§(\S\S),¶¶(\P\P), (\|\|).Note that footnotes to the text will automatically be assigned the superscript symbols1,2,3,...by the Classfile,beginning afresh on each page.1The title,author(s)and affiliation(s)should be followed by the\maketitle com-mand.3.2.AbstractsAt the beginning of your article,the title should be generated in the usual way using the\maketitle command.Immediately following the title you should include an abstract.The abstract should be enclosed within an abstract environment.For example,the titles for this guide were produced by the following source code:\title{Optimization Methods and Software:\LaTeXe\style%1These symbols will be changed to the style of the journal by the typesetter during preparation of your proofs.Optimization Methods and Software5guide for authors}\author{Taylor\&Francis Limited,4Park Square,Milton Park,Abingdon,OX144RN,UK}\received{v4.4released October2008} \maketitle\begin{abstract}This guide is for authors who are preparing papers for the Taylor\&% Francis journal{\em Optimization Methods and Software}%({\it gOMS}\,)using the\LaTeXe\document preparation system and%the Class file{\tt gOMS2e.cls},which is available via the journal% homepage on the Taylor\&Francis website(see Section~\ref{FTP}).% Authors planning to submit their papers in\LaTeXe\are advised to%use{\tt gOMS2e.cls}as early as possible in the creation of their%files.\end{abstract}(Please note that the percentage signs at the ends of lines that quote source code in this document are not part of the coding but have been inserted to achieve line wrapping at the appropriate points.)3.3.ListsThe gOMS style provides numbered and unnumbered lists using the enumerate environment and bulleted lists using the itemize environment.The enumerated list numbers each list item with arabic numerals:(1)first item(2)second item(3)third itemAlternative numbering styles can be achieved by inserting a redefinition of the number labelling command after the\begin{enumerate}.For example,the list(i)first item(ii)second item(iii)third itemwas produced by:\begin{enumerate}\item[(i)]first item\item[(ii)]second item\item[(iii)]third item\end{enumerate}Unnumbered lists are also provided using the enumerate environment.For example, First unnumbered indented item without label.Second unnumbered item.Third unnumbered item.was produced by:\begin{enumerate}\item[]First unnumbered indented item...6Taylor&Francis and I.T.Consultant\item[]Second unnumbered item.\item[]Third unnumbered item.\end{enumerate}Bulleted lists are provided using the itemize environment.For example,•First bulleted item•Second bulleted item•Third bulleted itemwas produced by:\begin{itemize}\item First bulleted item\item Second bulleted item\item Third bulleted item\end{itemize}4.Some guidelines for using standard featuresThe following notes may help you achieve the best effects with the gOMS2e Class file.4.1.SectionsL A T E X2εprovidesfive levels of section headings and they are all defined in the gOMS2e Classfile:(1)\section(2)\subsection(3)\subsubsection(4)\paragraph(5)\subparagraphNumbering is automatically generated for section,subsection,subsubsection and paragraph headings.If you need additional text styles in the headings,see the examples in Section5.4.2.Illustrations(figures)The gOMS style will cope with most positioning of your illustrations and you should not normally use the optional positional qualifiers of the figure environ-ment,which would override these decisions.See‘Instructions for Authors’in the journal’s homepage on the Taylor&Francis website for how to submit artwork (/journals/authors/gomsauth.asp).Figure captions should be below thefigure itself,therefore the\caption command should appear after thefigure.For example,Figure1with caption and sub-captions is produced using the following commands:\begin{figure}\begin{center}\subfigure[]{\resizebox*{5cm}{!}{\includegraphics{senu_gr1.eps}}}%\subfigure[]{\resizebox*{5cm}{!}{\includegraphics{senu_gr2.eps}}}%Optimization Methods and Software7(a)(b)Figure1.Example of a two-partfigure with individual sub-captions showingthat all lines offigure captions range left.Table1.Radio-band beaming model parameters for FSRQsand BL Lacs.Class aγ1γ2b γ G fθcBL Lacs5367−4.01.0×10−210◦FSRQs54011−2.30.5×10−214◦a This is not as accurate,owing to numerical error.b An example table footnote to show the text turning overwhen a long footnote is inserted.\caption{\label{fig2}Example of a two-part figure with individual% sub-captions showing that all lines of figure captions range left.}% \label{sample-figure}\end{center}\end{figure}The control sequences\epsfig{},\subfigure{}and\includegraphics{}re-quire epsfig.sty,subfigure.sty and graphicx.sty.These are called by the Classfile gOMS2e.cls and are included with the LaTeX package for this journal for conve-nience.To ensure thatfigures are correctly numbered automatically,the\label{}com-mand should be inserted just after\caption{}4.3.TablesThe gOMS style will cope with most positioning of your tables and you should not normally use the optional positional qualifiers of the table environment,which would override these decisions.The table caption appears above the body of the table in gOMS style,therefore the\tbl command should appear before the body of the table.The tabular environment can be used to produce tables with single thick and thin horizontal rules,which are allowed,if desired.Thick rules should be used at the head and foot only and thin rules elsewhere.Commands to redefine quantities such as\arraystretch should be omitted. For example,table1is produced using the following commands.Note that\rm will produce a roman character in math mode.There are also\bf and\it,which produce bold face and text italic in math mode.\begin{table}\tbl{Radio-band beaming model parameters8Taylor&Francis and I.T.Consultantfor{FSRQs and BL Lacs.}}{\begin{tabular}{@{}lcccccc}\topruleClass$^{\rm a}$&$\gamma_1$&$\gamma_2$$^{\rm b}$&$\langle\gamma\rangle$&$G$&$f$&$\theta_{c}$\\\colruleBL Lacs&5&36&7&$-4.0$&$1.0\times10^{-2}$&10$^\circ$\\FSRQs&5&40&11&$-2.3$&$0.5\times10^{-2}$&14$^\circ$\\\botrule\end{tabular}}\tabnote{$^{\rm a}$This is not as accurate,owing tonumerical error.}\tabnote{$^{\rm b}$An example table footnote to show thetext turning over when a long footnote is inserted.}%\label{symbols}\end{table}To ensure that tables are correctly numbered automatically,the\label{}com-mand should be inserted just before\end{table}.4.4.Running headlinesIn gOMS style,the authors’names and the title of the journal are used throughout the article as running headlines at the top of alternate pages. An abbreviated list of authors’names in italic format appears on even-numbered pages(versos)—e.g.‘J.Smith and P.Jones’,or‘J.Smith et al.’for three or more authors—and the journal title in italic format is used on odd-numbered pages(rectos).To achieve this,the\markboth command is used.The running headlines for this guide were produced using the following code:\markboth{Taylor\&Francis and I.T.Consultant}{Optimization Methods and Software}.The\pagestyle and\thispagestyle commands should not be used.4.5.Maths environmentsThe gOMS style provides for the following maths environments.Lemma4.1More recent algorithms for solving the semidefinite programming relax-ation are particularly efficient,because they explore the structure of the MAX-CUT.Theorem4.2More recent algorithms for solving the semidefinite programming relaxation are particularly efficient,because they explore the structure of the MAX-CUT.Corollary4.3More recent algorithms for solving the semidefinite programming relaxation are particularly efficient,because they explore the structure of the MAX-CUT.Proposition4.4More recent algorithms for solving the semidefinite programming relaxation are particularly efficient,because they explore the structure of the MAX-CUT.Optimization Methods and Software9 Proof More recent algorithms for solving the semidefinite programming relaxation are particularly efficient,because they explore the structure of the MAX-CUT.Remark1More recent algorithms for solving the semidefinite programming relax-ation are particularly efficient,because they explore the structure of the MAX-CUT problem.Algorithm1More recent algorithms for solving the semidefinite programming re-laxation are particularly efficient,because they explore the structure of the MAX-CUT problem.These were produced by:\begin{lemma}More recent algorithms for solving the semidefiniteprogramming relaxation are particularly efficient,because they explore the structure of the MAX-CUT.\end{lemma}\begin{theorem}......\end{theorem}\begin{corollary}......\end{corollary}\begin{proposition}......\end{proposition}\begin{proof}......\end{proof}\begin{remark}......\end{remark}\begin{algorithm}......\end{algorithm}10Taylor&Francis and I.T.Consultant4.6.Typesetting mathematics4.6.1.Displayed mathematicsThe gOMS style will set displayed mathematics centred on the measure without equation numbers,provided that you use the L A T E X2εstandard control sequences open(\[)and close(\])square brackets as delimiters.The equationpλi=trace(S)i∈Ri=1was typeset in the gOMS style using the commands\[\sum_{i=1}^p\lambda_i={\rm trace}({\textrm{\bf S}})\qquadi\in{\mathbb R}\].For those of your equations that you wish to be automatically numbered sequen-tially throughout the text,use the equation environment,e.g.pλi=trace(S)i∈R(1)i=1was typeset using the commands\begin{equation}\sum_{i=1}^p\lambda_i={\rm trace}({\textrm{\bf S}})quadi\in{\mathbb R}\end{equation}Part numbers for sets of equations may be generated using the subequations environment,e.g.ερw tt(s,t)=N[w s(s,t),w st(s,t)]s,(2a)w tt(1,t)+N[w s(1,t),w st(1,t)]=0,(2b) which was generated using the control sequences\begin{subequations}\label{subeqnexample}\begin{equation}\varepsilon\rho w_{tt}(s,t)=N[w_{s}(s,t),w_{st}(s,t)]_{s},\label{subeqnpart}\end{equation}\begin{equation}w_{tt}(1,t)+N[w_{s}(1,t),w_{st}(1,t)]=0,\end{equation}\end{subequations}This is made possible by the package subeqn,which is called by the Classfile.If you put the\label{}just after the\begin{subequations}line,references will be to the collection of equations,‘(2)’in the example above.Or,like the example code above,you can reference each equation individually—e.g.‘(2a)’.4.6.2.Bold math italic symbolsTo get bold math italic you can use\bm,which works for all sizes,e.g.\sffamily\begin{equation}{\rm d}({\bm s_{t_{\bm u}})=\langle{\bm\alpha({\sf{\textbf L}})}% [RM({\bm X}_y+{\bm s}_t)-RM({\bm x}_y)]^2\rangle.\end{equation}\normalfontproduces)= α(L)[RM(X y+s t)−RM(x y)]2 .(3)d(s tuNote that subscript,superscript,subscript to subscript,etc.sizes will take care of themselves and are italic,not bold,unless coded individually.\bm produces the same effect as\boldmath.\sffamily...\normalfont allows upright sans serif fonts to be created in math mode by using the control sequence‘\sf’.4.6.3.Bold GreekBold lowercase as well as uppercase Greek characters can be obtained by {\bm\gamma},which givesγ,and{\bm\Gamma},which givesΓ.4.6.4.Upright lowercase Greek characters and the upright partial derivative sign Upright lowercase Greek characters can be obtained with the Classfile by insert-ing the letter‘u’in the control code for the character,e.g.\umu and\upi produce µ(used,for example,in the symbol for the unit microns—µm)andπ(the ratio of the circumference to the diameter of a circle).Similarly,the control code for the upright partial derivative∂is\upartial.4.7.AcknowledgementsAn unnumbered section,e.g.\section*{Acknowledgement(s)},should be used for thanks,grant details,etc.and placed before any Notes or References sections.4.8.NotesAn unnumbered section,e.g.\section*{Note(s)},may be inserted after any Ac-knowledgements and before any References section.4.9.AppendicesAppendices should be set after the references,beginning with the command \appendices followed by the command\section for each appendix title,e.g.\appendices\section{This is the title of the first appendix}\section{This is the title of the second appendix}producesAppendix A.This is the title of thefirst appendixAppendix B.This is the title of the second appendixSubsections,equations,theorems,figures,tables,etc.within appendices will then be automatically numbered as appropriate.4.10.References4.10.1.References cited in the textReferences cited in the text should be quoted by their number as they are listed in the alphabetical References list towards the end of the document, not the order of citation,so thefirst reference cited in the text might be [23].For example,these may take the forms[32],[5,6,14],[21–55](not[21]–[55]).To produce the References list,the bibliographic data about each refer-ence item should be listed in thebibliography environment in alphabetical or-der.Each bibliographical entry has a key,which is assigned by the author and used to refer to that entry in the text.In this document,the key glov00in the citation form\cite{glov00}produces‘[5]’,and the keys ed84and aiex02 in the citation form\cite{ed84,aiex02}produce‘[1,3]’.The citation for a range of bibliographic entries(e.g.‘[2,4,6–10]’)will automatically be produced by\cite{doniz00,fzf88,GHGsoft,lam86,mtw73,neu83,fwp88}.Optional notes may be included at the end of a citation by the use of square brackets, e.g. \cite[see][and references therein]{fzf88}produces‘[see4,and references therein]’.4.10.2.The list of referencesThe following listing shows some references prepared in the style of the journal; note that references having the same author(s)are listed chronologically,beginning with the earliest.References[1]R.M.Aiex,Conjectured statistics for the q,t-Catalan numbers,preprint(2002),to appear in Advancesin Math.Available at

Extraction of Virtual Scattering Centers of Vehicles by Ray-Tracing SimulationsKarin Schuler,Denis Becker,and Werner Wiesbeck,Fellow,IEEEAbstract—Radar images of complex targets can be understood as a superposition of the reflected signals from a high number of scattering centers.To model complex targets for radar simulations, the plurality of scattering centers should be reduced to few signifi-cant scattering centers in order to minimize computational effort. The scope of this work is to present a technique to generate a signif-icantly simplified RCS model of the vehicle with a limited number of virtual scattering centers,each with its own scattering charac-teristic,and how to group these scattering centers in a cluster data-base.The work is based on ray-tracing simulations of complex vehicle models.The ray-tracing simulations have been validated by measurements.The scattering centers may not be physically existing strong scattering centers,but virtual scattering centers representing a certain scattering behavior.In this paper,a tech-nique for extracting such virtual scattering centers from a complex 3D-vehicle-model is presented.It is based on ray-tracing simula-tions of such models.As an example,the design model of a Ford Focus is used.Index Terms—Ray-tracing,RCS-modeling,scattering center.I.I NTRODUCTIOND URING the last years,safety relevant sensor systems havebecome an important feature in the automotive industry. Presently,short range radar(SRR)systems are being devel-oped and introduced to the market.Their intention is to cover the near surrounding of a vehicle to assist the driver during Stop-n-Go traffic and parking,but also to increase safety by blind-spot surveillance and side impact warnings.Currently,dif-ferent approaches are being discussed for the realization of a radar sensor with full azimuth coverage and high azimuth res-olution of the close-by environment.To simulate and evaluate the performance of different approaches for such SRR-systems, scattering-models of vehicles are required.Since vehicles ob-served in the close-by region exhibit multiple scattering centers, contributions from different angles are expected.Depending on the incidence angle,they cause multiple intensity maxima in radar images[1].By describing the scattering characteristics of complex objects by one single RCS value,the multiple scat-tering centers and other scattering phenomena are not apparentManuscript received January22,2007;revised July12,2008.Current version published November14,2008.K.Schuler was with the Universität Karlsruhe(TH),Institut für Höch-stfrequenztechnik und Eletronik(IHE),Karlsruhe D76131,Germany.She is now with EADS Defence Electronics,Ulm D89077,Germany(e-mail: karin.schuler@a.de).D.Becker and W.Wiesbeck are with the Universität Karlsruhe(TH),Institut für Höchstfrequenztechnik und Eletronik(IHE),Karlsruhe D76131,Germany (e-mail:denis.becker@a.de;werner.wiesbeck@a.de).Color versions of one or more of thefigures in this paper are available at .Digital Object Identifier10.1109/TAP.2008.2005436anymore.For this reason,it is not sufficient to consider a single scattering center or an azimuth independent RCS in the simu-lations.However,the multiple scattering centers are important and have to be taken into account in radar imaging simulations with high azimuth resolution.A scattering center description for target recognition in one dimension is proposed in[2].Ap-proaches for scattering center extraction are suggested in[3], [4].There exist various numerical methods for the calculation of electromagneticfield distributions like the method of moments (MoM)[5],finite-difference-time-domain(FDTD)method[6] and thefinite element method(FEM).All these methods require a high discretization of the structure relative to the wavelength. At high frequencies,this leads to an immense computational ef-fort for large structures.Therefore,these numerical methods are not suited for large problems[7].In such cases,hybrid[8]or asymptotic methods based on geometrical optics(GO)or phys-ical optics(PO)are often used.Physical optics may also be ex-tended by physical theory of diffraction(PTD)[7],the method of equivalent currents(MEC)[9]and impedance boundary con-dition(IBC)techniques[10].These ray-tracing simulations deliver fast and reliable results when considering the scattering characteristic of complex ob-jects.However,sometimes even these simulations of complex models are too time-consuming.For electrically large problems like traffic scenarios,it is therefore crucial to derive a simplified scattering model,which delivers a good approximation for the scattering characteristic of the involved vehicles.In the following,a straightforward approach to generate such a simplified scattering model by determining the virtual scat-tering centers of the vehicle directly from ray-tracing simula-tions will be presented.In general,ray-tracing simulations determine the properties of the propagation paths between a transmitter and a receiver, including multiple non-line-of-sight paths.On the way from the transmitter to the receiver,the rays hit the simulation struc-ture at multiple points,which leads to reflection,diffraction and scattering.All these interaction points are called scattering cen-ters.The scattering centers are therewith a direct result of the ray-tracing simulation.The goal of this work is to group the scattering centers into so-called virtual scattering centers.The virtual scattering centers are representatives of the scattering be-havior of the structure itself and describe the most important ge-ometrical parts and their contributions to the scattering.The ray-tracing simulation results have been validated by measurements.Based on these results,a simplified scattering model is derived,consisting of multiple virtual scattering centers,each with its special scattering characteristic.These virtual scattering centers represent the simplified scattering0018-926X/$25.00©2008IEEEFig.1.Model of Ford Focus for IHE3D-ray-tracing.Fig.2.Coordinate system.model,which has a similar scattering behavior as the complex car model.This simplified scattering model allows the rapid investigation of a wide range of radar scattering situations,where a conventional ray-tracing method would be too complex or is not available.II.R AY -T RACING S IMULATIONSimulations of vehicles with commercial FDTD simulation tools are not feasible at frequencies of 24GHz or 76GHz,as they are specified for automotive radar applications.The dis-cretization of the model into sub-wavelength-elements would lead to too large matrices.Ray-tracing simulations do not suffer directly from this constraint.The crucial number for ray-tracing-simulations is the number of visible faces seen by the trans-mitter.This number is therewith rather related to the geometry’s complexity than to its size.RCS simulations with ray-tracing have also been presented in [7].One approach for the determination of scattering centers is presented in [11].In simulated ISAR images intensity maxi-mums are considered as scattering centers and subtracted from the radar image with the clean algorithm [12].The radar images are based on the shooting and bouncing ray technique and on the processing of ISAR images.This procedure therefore requires a detour when processing the ISAR image.A similar but frequency and aspect dependent technique for data compression of SAR and ISAR images is presented in [13].It is based on the extraction of point and line-segment scatterers from the measured radar image.In the following,the scattering information obtained by the ray-tracing simulation will be directly evaluated.The usedray-Fig.3.Example of bistatic ray-tracing simulation with IHE3D-ray-tracing.Fig.4.Bistatic measurements at JRC,Ispra,Italy,car outside the chamber.tracing tool has been developed at the Institut für Höchstfre-quenztechnik und Elektronik (IHE)at the University of Karl-sruhe (TH)in Germany.It is a ray optical approach for modeling wave propagation.Each ray is considered separately and takes into account multiple reflections,diffraction and scattering.This gives an insight to the scattering centers and the scattering phe-nomena that will be exploited in the following.Modified Fresnel coefficients are used to model rough surfaces.Diffraction is de-scribed by the uniform geometrical theory of diffraction (UTD)and the corresponding heuristic coefficients for wedge diffrac-tion.The ray-tracing tool has already been verified multiple times with measurements for various wave propagation simu-lations [14]–[17].The 3D-model of the car,which is considered in the fol-lowing,is illustrated in Fig.1.The model of the car consists of 12.100triangles.Each ofthem is at least25,guaranteeing a large area compared to the wavelengthat .This is important to fulfill the requirements of the ray-tracing tool.For calculating the reflections,the ray-tracing tool assumes rel-atively large areas and uses the modified Fresnel-coefficients for the calculation of the reflection coefficient.Therefore,the edgeSCHULER et al.:EXTRACTION OF VIRTUAL SCATTERING CENTERS OF VEHICLES3545Fig.5.Bistatic coupling coefficient for front illumination ('=180)in vertical polarization at f

element must be within 5to 10wavelength,which is fulfilled in this case.This condition determines also the max-imum number of elements.In this particular case of a vehicle,reflections are the majority of all interactions.If the number of elements is chosen significantly smaller,the ray-tracer will not find enough reflections to represent the scattering character-istic of the car precisely enough.This would also be the case for lower frequencies,for which the size of the triangles would have to be increased and therefore their number would become to small to give a precise representation of the cars geometry.For higher frequencies,more detailed models could be used,delivering even more accurate results.A material assignment is made for each discretization element of the car.It contains the parameters of the permittivity,the roughness and the loss.For the simulation,a ground floor was added to take multipath propagation effects also into account [18].III.V ERIFICATION OF R AY -T RACING S IMULATIONSThe bistatic scattering coefficient of a Ford Focus has been simulated with ray-tracing and compared to measurements of the same vehicle.In Fig.2the coordinate system and its origin is defined relative to the car.Fig.3shows the top view for a bistatic ray-tracing simulation.The lines indicate the propagation paths.The line-of-sight path is neglected.For each transmitter and receiver position,the dynamic range is limited to 100dB with reference to the strongest non-line-of-sight path.Up to five interactions as diffraction and reflection are considered per path.For scattering only one interaction is considered,since the power level of the scattered path is reduced drasti-cally.For each path,the path information is stored.The path information contains the number,types and locations of the interactions.Also the amplitude and the phase of the received signals are delivered.These parameters are obtained from the propagation time and the complex scattering coefficients of the interactions.The vehicle is illuminated from therearin the azimuthplane whereas the receiver performs a 360-turn along the azimuth.The simulations have been per-formed for both horizontal and vertical polarization.Similar simulations were performed for frontillumination .The same configurations are used in the verification measure-ments.The verification measurements were performed in the ane-choic chamber of the European Commission Joint Research Center (JRC),located at Ispra in northern Italy,and were pub-lished in [19].Fig.4shows the vehicle in front of the anechoic chamber.3546IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON ANTENNAS AND PROPAGATION,VOL.56,NO.11,NOVEMBER 2008With this setup,the bistatic coupling coefficient along the az-imuthangle and the elevationangle has been measured for the two cases:front and rear illumination,both in vertical and horizontal polarization.The coupling coefficient for front illu-mination has been simulated and measured along a spherical surface.It is plotted along the azimuthangle and the eleva-tionangle .In Fig.5the comparison between measurement and simulation is shown for vertical polarization.The transmitantenna was placed at azimuthangleand elevationangle .The receive antenna was moved along azimuthfromto and along elevationfromto in the upper hemisphere.Measurements have alreadybeen performed for the study presented in [19]with an angular step width of 5along azimuth and elevation.For the compar-ison between the measurement and the simulation,the bistatic simulations have been performed with the same step width.The comparisons show a good agreement for high elevationangles,which are close to the azimuth plane.The farther transmitter and receiver are positioned from each other,the more simulation and measurement differ from each other.However,the closer transmitter and receiver are positioned to each other,the better is the agreement.Since in the following only monostatic simulations will be analyzed,reliable results from these ray-tracing simulations are expected.For a closer look at the data,the coupling coefficient for aconstant elevationangleis shown in Fig.6.It shows the comparison of the simulated and the measured coupling co-efficient for rear illumination in vertical (left)and horizontal (right)polarization.For both polarizations,the coupling coef-ficient drops significantly when transmit and receive antennasareorientedrelative to each other.The agreement be-tween measurement and simulation is very good for azimuthanglebetweenand 160.For azimuth angles closeto ,the angle of reflection is relatively large.In this spe-cific configuration,the simulation leads to an increased reflec-tion coefficient since the coupling along the roof of the car is considered to strong.The here presented comparison uses a bistatic configuration due to the available measurements.It shows,that the closer transmit and receive antenna are situated to each other,the better is the agreement between simulation and measurement.This is important since the following simulations and the derivation of the virtual scattering model will be performed in monostatic configuration.This monostatic configuration can be looked at as the extreme case of a bistatic configuration,where both an-tennas are placed at the same location.However,the accuracy of the virtual scattering center model can not be higher than the accuracy of the initial ray-tracing simulation.This comparison proves the reliability of the ray-tracing simulations with this de-tailed simulation model of the Ford Focus.Therefore the anal-ysis of ray-tracing specific information like the location of scat-tering centers and the path information can be used for further analysis.IV .M ONOSTATIC V IRTUAL S CATTERING C ENTER E XTRACTION In the following,monostatic ray-tracing simulations in az-imuth will be evaluated.The analysis of the scatteringcentersFig.7.Scattering centers for monostatic simulation of FordFocus.Fig.8.Flowchart of implemented greedy-algorithm.leads to scattering clusters.To each cluster,a single virtual scat-tering center with its own scattering characteristic is assigned.The scattering characteristic is obtained by summarizing the scattering effects of all scattering centers belonging to one cluster.Of course,a high number of clusters will lead to a more precise model,but on the other hand,a model containing a low number of clusters will result in a faster calculation.It will be shown that it is possible to reduce the complex vehicle model to a limited number of clusters for characterizing the scattering behavior in the azimuth plane without compromising on the precision of the simulation.A.Simulation of Scattering CentersA monostatic simulation of the reflection coefficient has been performed along azimuth using 1step width along a circle withtheradius.Regarding the possible application of this model for Short Range Radar simulations,the angular resolution width is a good compromise between computation time and ac-curacy.The position and the amplitude of the scattering centers depend on the radius and the azimuth angle during ray-tracing simulation.This fact has to be taken into account when the de-rived virtual scattering center model will be used in other radar simulations by calculating the aspect angles for each cluster and the attenuation.In Fig.7,the scattering centers for a monostatic simulationin vertical polarization for elevationangleand azimuth angle varyingfromto are plotted onto the carSCHULER et al.:EXTRACTION OF

regarding the scattering in general.For each specific direction,only a part of the shown scattering centers is contributing to the scattering characteristic. In total,all scattering centers lead to the typical scattering char-acteristic,which is taken later on as a reference.B.Extraction of Scattering Clusters and Virtual Scattering CentersTo simplify the model,the scattering centers are arranged into scattering clusters.This is done by a so called greedy-algorithm [20].In thefirst part the scattering centers are arranged by their location and in the second part the contribution of the scattering center into a certain direction is considered.In the following the greedy algorithm,which is illustrated in theflowchart in Fig.8,is described in detail.Search for Strongest Scattering Center:In thefirst step,the algorithm looks for the scattering center related to the strongest scattering center.This is the starting point for the cluster forma-tion.In the surrounding of this point,the algorithm then searches for further scatteringcenters.Fig.11.Virtual scattering centers of Ford Focus.Find Best Cluster Shape and Position:Adaptively,the algo-rithm decides on the shape of the cluster.The cluster shape and size affect the cluster extraction.If the cluster shape and the ge-ometrical structure of the scattering centers do not match,the algorithm will determine a high number of clusters for an appro-priate description.The cluster size also affects the number of de-termined clusters.If the cluster size is to small,a higher number of clusters is required to take into account all contributions from the scattering centers.On the other hand,large clusters sum up the contributions from a large number of scattering centers.This reduces the effect of multiple scattering centers.In the extreme case,when all scattering centers are combined into one cluster, the conventional radar cross section is obtained,which cannot be used for simulations evaluating multiple scattering centers. In the case of the presented vehicle,three different cluster shapes are considered:Circles,upright rectangles and across placed rectangles.These shapes have been chosen according to the top view geometry of the vehicle,which is basically a rec-tangle with rounded edges.The circle shapes have aradiusfromto tofit to the car edges. The aspect ratio of upright rectangleswidth toheightis.This is chosen due to the fact that the up-right rectangles are intended to cover the bumpers.For the up-right rectangles theheight is variedfromto.These values have been chosen relative to the car widthof,which is more than the maximum rectangleheight,but less than two times the minimumheight.For the rectangles across the as-pectratio,which is the aspect ratio of the car itself,thewidth is variedfromto.These values have been chosen relative to3548IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON ANTENNAS AND PROPAGATION,VOL.56,NO.11,NOVEMBER2008Fig.12.Monostatic scattering characteristic for virtual scattering centers relative to their center.Left:cluster #9and cluster #10,vertical polarization,right:cluster #4and cluster #9,horizontal polarization.the car lengthof to allow two to three clusters along the side of the car.These parameters are the only geomet-rical input parameters affecting the cluster search.To achieve the maximum density of scattering centers per cluster area,the geometrical size of the cluster is varied within the given margins.This step of the algorithm is illustrated in Fig.9.Each cluster shape and cluster size is also moved inthe -planebyalongandalong to achieve an optimum fitting of the shape to the location of the scattering centers.The initial position (dashed line)and the op-timum fit position (solid line)are shown in Fig.10for a cluster at the right front of the car.Cluster Generation:After a cluster has been determined,all scattering centers contained in that cluster are neglected during the determination of the next clusters.Hence the algorithm is called a greedy algorithm.To each generatedcluster ,a virtualscatteringcenteris assigned.This is not the geometrical center of the cluster area,but the center ofallscatteringcenters contributing to thecluster ,weighted by theirreflectivity(1)Also,for each cluster the monostatic scatteringcharacteristicis calculated.For this,all complexcontributionsofthe scattering centers within the cluster contributing to theangle are referred to the cluster center by theterm and summedup(2)Restart Search:After the determination of one cluster,the search for the next strongest signal restarts.This procedure isrepeated until the contribution of the remaining scattering cen-ters is below 100dB with reference to the strongest scattering center.Fig.11shows the 10virtual scattering centers determined by the algorithm for vertical and horizontal polarization.The numbers indicate the order in which the clusters are found by the algorithm.They are also ordered according to the reflection of the strongest scattering center within the clusters.The strongest virtual scattering centers are at the four corners on the car,followed by the virtual scattering centers on wheel-houses.The positions of the virtual scattering centers are not symmetric.This is due to the fact that the implemented algo-rithm searches for the cluster centers one after the other without any pre-knowledge about the structure itself and its symmetry.In the second step of the implemented algorithm,the scat-tering characteristic of the virtual scattering center is calculated.The contributions of all scattering centers within one cluster are referred to the virtual scattering center of the cluster and called reflection coefficient or scattering characteristic.For each po-larization,the ray-tracing data is therefore evaluated.In Fig.12two scattering characteristics are shown for two individual vir-tual scattering centers.The angle of arrival AoA is relative to the virtual scattering center of each cluster.In Fig.12left,the cluster characteristics are shown for cluster #9and #10in vertical polarization.These are the sides of the car.It shows a strong influence for angles of arrivalaround.This means,that the clusters are active for inci-dence angles perpendicular to the side of the car,what one would expect.In Fig.12right,the cluster characteristic for cluster #4and #9,the rear left cluster and a cluster at the right side of the car,are shown in horizontal polarization.Cluster #9has in hori-zontal polarization a similar influence as in vertical polarization.The influence of cluster #4is significant for angles of arrivalfromto .This is a relatively large angular coverage but since the cluster #4represents an edge of the car,this is evident.Both examples show a high reflection coefficient for those aspect angles,where the clusters are visible.This indicates a reasonable description of the scattering characteristic.SCHULER et al.:EXTRACTION OF VIRTUAL SCATTERING CENTERS OF VEHICLES3549Fig.13.Virtual scattering center description and ray-tracing simulation.Cluster #1to #4considered for virtual scattering center description.Left:vertical polar-ization,right:horizontalpolarization.Fig.14.Virtual scattering center description and ray-tracing simulation.Cluster #1to #10considered for virtual scattering center description.Left:vertical po-larization,right:horizontal polarization.C.Validation of Virtual Scattering Center Description To validate the simplified car model of the Ford Focus,repre-sented by the virtual scattering centers,its monostatic reflection coefficient is calculated.This is the summation over all scat-tering characteristics of the virtual scattering centers.For this,the scattering characteristics have to be referred to the origin of the coordinate system.This is a comparison between two simulations:The result of the original ray-tracing simulation and the corresponding virtual scattering center model.Both the ray-tracing simulation and the virtual scattering model might be different for other types of vehicles but a general behavior can be expected for similar cars with hatchback.Cluster #1and #2are situated at the front of the car,whereas cluster #3and #4are located at the rear of the car.Therefore,these clusters have a strong influence on the rear backscatter.The monostatic scattering characteristics of the simplified scat-tering model for azimuth anglefromto 50is shown in Fig.13.The model consists of only the clusters #1to #4,both in vertical (left)and horizontal (right)polarization.The referenceis the reflection coefficient obtained by the ray-tracing simula-tion of the Ford Focus model.The virtual scattering center representation shows a good agreement with the ray-tracing simulation for the shown az-imuth angles.At the sides of the car,the virtual scattering center representation does not match the original ray-tracing simulation,since the virtual scattering centers at the side of the car were not considered.For 10clusters,the comparison is shown in Fig.14for vertical (left)and horizontal (right)polarization.Considering the first 10clusters,the agreement between virtual scattering center representation and original ray-tracing simulation is very good for the whole azimuth angle.This confirms the validity of the virtual scattering center rep-resentation with 10clusters each with its own scattering charac-teristic.V .C ONCLUSIONIn this paper,bistatic measurements and ray-tracing simula-tions have been compared to validate the ray-tracing simulations3550IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON ANTENNAS AND PROPAGATION,VOL.56,NO.11,NOVEMBER2008of a detailed car model.Monostatic simulations were used to determine the scattering centers.By forming clusters and repre-senting them by virtual scattering centers with associated scat-tering characteristics led to a simple car model for monostatic simulations in the azimuth plane.This shows that ray-tracing simulations of complex objects allow the derivation of simpli-fied scattering models.In general,the developed algorithm can be applied to arbitrary complex three-dimensional objects de-livering simplified models with similar scattering characteris-tics.This is important,since only by reducing the complexity of large objects it becomes possible to simulate superior prob-lems like automotive radar scenarios in realistic traffic situa-tions.The herein presented monostatic model offers a proven base for such simulations.The presented method enables quick comparisons of different radar configurations.The extension to a bistatic model will make this method applicable to other prob-lems and can be used to,e.g.simplify and improve channel es-timation simulations for mobile communications.R EFERENCES[1]J.Odendaal and P.Niemand,“Statistical properties of radar
