Abstract:Flying targets are becoming increasingly maneuverable, contributing to the growing problem of their detection with active and passive radars. Rapid acceleration causes blurring of the target echo on the range-Doppler (RD) map, which reduces the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in a given range and velocity cell. This paper proposes a novel, non-parametric approach to quickly and efficiently estimating target acceleration on the RD map. In the paper, a universal signal model for an active frequency-modulated continu… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
