CALL FOR PAPERS: for Papers IET Radar, Sonar & Navigation Special Issue: Biologically-Inspired Radar and Sonar Systems This is a call for papers on biologically-inspired or biomimetic radar and sonar systems for a special issue in the IET Radar,<http://www.ietdl.org/IET-RSN> Sonar & Navigation<http://www.ietdl.org/IET-RSN> journal. Articles are invited which explore the biological sources of inspiration for sonar and radar systems, which document tests of their efficacy, and which illuminate similarities and differences between the approaches in the sonar and radar regimes. The special issue will highlight recent advances in biologically-inspired methods applied to artificial sensors. Contributions are sought that address but are not limited to: ■ bio-inspired waveforms ■ analysis of naturally occurring echolocation systems ■ bio-inspired methods for target detection and classification ■ bio-inspired transducers ■ cognitive signal processing inspired by natural systems ■ bio-inspired imaging ■ future research directions Papers will be subject to the journal's standard peer-review procedure and should follow style/length guidelines set out in the 'Author guide' section of the journal webpage at www.ietdl.org/IET-RSN<http://www.ietdl.org/IET-RSN> All papers must be submitted through the journal's Manuscript Central system: http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/iet-rsn Special issue guest editors: Prof. Tim Leighton ISVR, University of Southampton E: T.G.Leighton@soton.ac.uk<mailto:T.G.Leighton@soton.ac.uk> Mr. Alessio Balleri Dept.
