Abstract :
This paper describes the novel application of both dual tone CW and ISAR techniques to measure the position of a small high velocity projectile as it passes through a defined sensory virtual plane, so forming the basis of an automatic targeting system for live fire training. Simulation and initial experimental results are presented, as well as a general description of the system.
