Abstract
- In this report we review fifteen radar target discrimination features developed under the ARPA Warbreaker, ARPA STAR, and Air Force Concealed Target Detection programs. Although the features were originally developed for use with K-band radar sensors, the scattering behaviors exploited by the features are observed at foliage penetrating L-band frequencies. Thus, the features hold potential as discriminants for detection of obscured targets. Feature descriptions, motivating phenomenology, and MATLAB programs are presented. Additionally we summarize the methodology and findings for the feature-based discriminators developed by Lincoln Laboratory for K-band detection and by ERIM for L-band detection. An electronic copy of the MATLAB code is contained in the enclosed diskette.
