1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Frequency diverse array (FDA) beams show an "S" shape in space and cannot form a spot beam; thus, they cannot be directly combined with spotlight synthetic aperture radar (SSAR). In this paper, we propose a 2D imaging system emitting multiple repeated subpulses using an FDA and spotlight synthetic aperture radar (MRS-FDA-SSAR). This system carries the FDA on an airborne platform and uses the frequency difference between the array elements to synthesize broadband signals and obtain the distance-direction resolution, and then it uses a synthetic aperture technique to obtain the azimuth-direction resolution. Subsequently, 2D imaging results are obtained using the BP algorithm. A deconvolution algorithm is introduced to address the problem of high target sidelobes in the BP imaging results, which can result in the masking of weak targets. This allows 2D imaging results to be obtained with lower sidelobes. Finally, the MRS-FDA-SSAR model was simulated in experiments to verify its effectiveness.
