Abstract: |
Dense maritime environments pose significant challenges to naval airborne maritime sensor systems with respect to surface target classification because surface vessels of interest must often be separated from a larger number of similar looking surface vessels with non-threatening intent. Perhaps the most difficult classification challenge arises in vessels that are inherently similar in nature and the challenge becomes even more difficult with decreasing vessel size (e.g., small boats with very few features). If the classification must rely exclusively on the radar interrogation, LSI proposes the use of more advanced spectral signal processing in combination with adaptive waveform techniques to yield the needed feature vector constituents to achieve the desired level of target separation and classification. |
Benefits: |
Robust construction of feature vector constituents from processing HRR/adaptive transmit waveforms. |
