Abstract
Symmetry has important consequences for target recognition. Rotation and reflection symmetry for targets near a ground or water surface not only help to identify the targets, but also aid in data processing to increase accuracy. While clutter (other scatterers) interfere with the target signatures, symmetry in the clutter can be used to suppress this interference.
