Abstract :
A new methodology for identifying aircraft using high range resolution radar is developed. The identifier maximizes the probability of target identification in dependent complex Gaussian noise, without being forced to decide from a limited number of categories. The results from experiments using ultra high range resolution (HRR) data demonstrates the fact that the proposed identifier provides a reasonable probability of detection and identification and is amenable to real time signal processing
