  • Abstract
    Radar map-matching location-estimation systems compare radar images of the terrain with a memory "map" to obtain an estimate of sensor position in the mapped area for guidance. This correspondence summarizes a data-acquisition program involving an omnidirectional range-scan radar sensor, and presents results of theoretical guidance exercises based on comparing actual radar signals with computer-generated memories.
