Abstract: In the past decade, advances in Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs) have led to significantly higher sampling rates, reducing the need for multiple down-conversion stages. Simultaneously, computational infrastructures, including parallel processing and Graphics Processing Units (GPUs), have evolved rapidly, enabling more robust system designs. However, these advances also generate massive datasets, which, if not managed effectively, can create bottlenecks in data and signal processing. Traditional signal processing methods struggle to keep up with these high data rates, creating a pressing need for techniques that can efficiently extract relevant information from such data streams.

 

Trained deep learning networks excel in swiftly extracting key features from complex datasets, making them a cutting-edge approach to addressing the demands of high-rate data sensing and processing. In this talk, we will explore a proposed architecture designed to manage high data volumes, sense relevant features from the datasets, and address emerging challenges in radar signal processing.
