[Editorial] Welcome to the 21st European Radar Conference

Résumé

It is a great pleasure to welcome you, on behalf of the entire organization team, to Paris for the European Radar Conference (EuRAD), organized from Wednesday 25th to Friday 27th September 2024. The 21st edition of EuRAD will gather researchers, radar professionals, students working in the fields of radar techniques, architectures and systems, signal and data processing in sectors such as automotive, security, remote sensing, industrial applications. It will be a great opportunity to meet colleagues and future collaborators, and get to disuss with the radar community. EuRAD comes back to Paris after 5 years. The conference will be held at Porte de Versailles, a venue which hosted a successful edition of EuRAD in 2019. The conference will have its opening session on Wednesday 25th September with two keynote speakers. Prof. Peter Burke, University of California Irvine, will present Radars from the Nano to the Macro Scale. At the nanoscale, sensing probes can be used to bring microwaves into live cells for real-time interrogation of biological structure and function and sensing life. At the macroscale, radars are used in drone control and commu- nications. Dr. Björn Rommen (ESA), will present the ongoing development and enhancement of synthetic aperture radar missions at ESA, within the Future EO and the Copernico programs, to advance Earth observation and provide reliable, all-weather, high-resolution Earth imagery and support key international policy objectives. On Friday 27th during the closing session Dr. Joachim Mathes (Valeo) will present, with concrete examples, how Advanced Driving Assistance Systems with high computational loads can be designed to meet the performance requirements and scalability needs for future software-defined vehicles. Finally, two industrial invited speakers will complete the panel of the invited talks. Dr. Florian Baumgärtner (Cariad Technology) will discuss challenges in radar-based motorbike detection and approaches for enhancing detection capabilities, and Dr. Matthieu Chevrier (Texas Instruments) will discuss how radar integration with System on Chip Integrated Circuits enables the usage of radar sensing technologies in factories for safety sensors. EuRAD is once again confirming its place as a reference conference in the sector, thanks to the high number of paper submissions we received this year. All the 161 submitted papers went through a rigorous peer-review process managed by a panel of experts representing the rich range of topics of EuRAD. After this process, 110 papers were accepted and will be presented in 18 oral sessions and one poster session. Two additional common sessions are planned with the European Microwave Conference (EuMC), one oral session on antenna arrays and a common poster session. EuRAD papers will open discussions on several topics, such as radar architectures, joint radar and communication systems, tracking and localization, artificial intelligence in radars, millimeter-wave and THz technology. A wide spectrum of applications will include automotive, security, remote sensing, medical and industrial sensors. Workshops will be organized on radar sensing above 100 GHz (on Monday together with EuMC), radar networks, waveform optimization, SAR processing techniques. A Workshop will be organized to share last advances in free-space radar sensing for electromagnetic materials modelling and characterization (on Friday). A EuMW Student School on Radars is planned on Thursday and Friday. The EuRAD delegates will surely be interested in the Automotive Forum (Monday) and the DSS Forum (Wednesday). Building such a rich and diverse program has been possible thanks to the authors who submitted their papers, thanks to the reviewers and thanks to the TPC members who worked to assure a smooth and professional revision process, and all the EuMW2024 team for useful discussions and continuous support. A special thanks goes to the keynote speakers and the invited industrial speakers, who will share with all of us their takes in highly interesting topics. We look forward to meeting you in Paris for an exciting EuRAD2024
