Abstract :
This paper describes the implementation of an automatic target recognition (ATR) Probing algorithm on a reconfigurable system, using the SA-C programming language and optimizing compiler. The reconfigurable system is 800 times faster than a comparable Pentium running a C implementation of the same probing task. The reasons for this are analyzed.
