A Multiple Resolution Study of Ka-Band HRR Polarimetric Signature Data

摘要

SAR resolution and plarization performance studies for ATR algorithms have been the source of recent attention. Thorough investigations are often hindered by the lack of rigorously consistent high-resolution full-polarimetric signature data for a sufficient number of targets across requisite viewing angles, articulations and environ ental conditions. While some evaluative performance studies of high-value structures and conceptual radar systems may be effectively studied with limited field radar data, to minimize signature acquisition costs, pose-independent studies of ATR algorithms are best served by signature libraries fashioned to encompass the complexity of the collection scenario.~1
