Abstract

In a method of recognizing a radar target object type, target range, heading and speed information are determined. A plurality of RCS for different targets of interest as a function of frequency and aspect angle are stored. Motion information of a platform on which a radar system is carried is determined. The target range, heading and speed information and the motion information of the platform with stored RCS, are processed, and what the observed radar pulse echo should be over the operational frequency band is predicted therefrom. Predicted information is compared with the measured pulse echoes to determine which target is present.
