Flexible Feature Processing Mechanism of Radar Target Signal

Extracting effective and reliable features is fundamental and critical for constructing target recognition systems. Flexible Feature Processing Mechanism emphasizes the integration of feature extraction arithmetic and the self-adaptation of feature selection. On one hand, it would try to dig up the valuable information on as many as possible aspects, so as to construct the feature extraction method sets. On the other hand, it emphasizes to select the distinct features and eliminate the redundant features. The series of feature processing methods have been applied in multiple radar recognition projects successfully. According to the observation and analysis on a large number of real-life data, and taking the thinking process and the description methods of radar operators for reference, a set of feature extraction and selection methods basing on visual effects for dynamic radar target echo series have been introduced. The effectiveness, robustness and extendibility have been proved by large amount of tests and applications.
