Abstract

An integrated approach to radar processing provides the best opportunity for maximum overall system performance. This is because the results of one stage may impact the processing in subsequent stages. Feedback from the various radar stages provides important information on how the data should be processed. This paper describes a concept for integrated end-to-end radar processing under knowledge-based control. Specific attention is paid to the formulation of rules, which may be procedural, heuristic, or hybrid combination
