Robust Through-the-Wall Radar Image Classification Using a Target-Model Alignment Procedure

Abstract: A through-the-wall radar image (TWRI) bears little resemblance to the equivalent optical image, making it difficult to interpret. To maximize the intelligence that may be obtained, it is desirable to automate the classification of targets in the image to support human operators. This paper presents a technique for classifying stationary targets based on the high-range resolution profile (HRRP) extracted from 3-D TWRIs. The dependence of the image on the target location is discussed using a system point spread … Show more

“…To analyze the effects of (11) in the image domain, and see how it relates to the traditional point spread function (PSF) [17], [21], we make certain assumptions. Consider deriving the traditional PSF from (3) in the absence of noise and interference, i.e., , assuming zero path loss and under unit reflectivity, i.e., (by definition of the PSF).…”

“…More importantly, the PSF by definition is evaluated for a single point target return [21], whereas the CPSF operates on the returns from several assumed point like multipath targets. Theoretically the PSF is a spatial transfer function defined at the origin convolved with a spatial delta function at the target coordinates [21], [25]. The convolution is already computed in (14).…”

“…Previously developed signal processing techniques that have also been applied to TTW imaging include the MUSIC algorithm [12], compressed sensing [13], image alignment procedures [14] and spatial filtering [15]. The focus of these techniques is often on the maximization the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the desired target or removal of the significant primary wall reflection.…”

“…The reflected signal of the radar target can be simulated using scattering analysis of the radar target [36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49]. In addition to radar detection and tracking, there have been mamy studies on radar target recognition [3,7,[50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59][61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68][69][70]. The expressions of recognition, classification and identification have been used interchangeably.…”
