An Interferometric ISAR System Model for Automatic Target Identification
نویسندگان
چکیده
Air-to-sea surveillance and tracking systems that provide rapid and positive identification of Non-Cooperative and Stealthy Targets (NCSTs) are connected with Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (ISAR) concepts and techniques. ISAR has several shortcomings that could be dealt with the contribution of a Phase Comparison Monopulse system. This paper presents the possible output for the height dimension of a ship target coming from a hybrid InISAR (Radio Frequency InterferometerISAR) system.

Interferometric ISAR Imaging Based on Compressive Sensing
Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (ISAR) images are often used for target classification and recognition applications. However, conventional 2D images do not provide the height information about the scattering centers. In this paper, an interferometric ISAR imaging method based on compressive sensing (CS) is proposed that is able to estimate the scatterering centres heights. The interferometric ...
متن کاملHarmonic Wavelet Based Isar Imaging for Target Identification
Target identification using Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (ISAR) imaging is an important tool required with the current day high-resolution radars for threat assessment and evaluation. Identification of target using the ISAR images is gaining popularity because of its importance in decision-making. The ISAR image represents the target’s reflectivity measured at discrete frequencies in the RF...
متن کاملThree-dimensional interferometric inverse synthetic aperture radar imaging of maneuvering target based on the joint cross modified Wigner- Ville distribution
Inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) can achieve high-resolution two-dimensional images of maneuvering targets. However, due to the indeterminate relative motion between radar and target, ISAR imaging does not provide the three-dimensional (3-D) position information of a target and suffers from great difficulty in target recognition. To tackle this issue, a 3-D interferometric ISAR (InISAR) ...
متن کاملUse of 3D ship scatterer models from ISAR image sequences for target recognition
Traditionally, Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (ISAR) image frames are classified individually in an automatic target recognition system. When information from different image frames is combined, it is usually in the context of timeaveraging to remove statistically independent noise fluctuations between images. The sea state induced variability of the ship target projections between frames, ho...
متن کاملA Comparative Study on Isar Imaging Algo- Rithms for Radar Target Identification
Inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) images represent the two-dimensional (2-D) spatial distribution of the radar crosssection (RCS) of an object and, thus, they can be applied to the problem of target identification. The traditional approach to ISAR imaging is the range-Doppler algorithm based on the 2-D Fourier transform. However, the 2-D Fourier transform often results in poor resolution ...
