However, the ability to automatically and reliably distinguish different targets represents a difficult challenge. <i>Radar Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) and Non-Cooperative Target Recognition (NCTR)</i> captures material presented in the NATO SET-172 lecture series to provide an overview of the state-of-the-art and continuing challenges of radar target recognition.</p><p xmlns="http://ns.editeur.org/onix/3.0/reference">Topics covered include the problem as applied to the ground, air and maritime domains; the impact of image quality on the overall target recognition performance; the performance of different approaches to the classifier algorithm; the improvement in performance to be gained when a target can be viewed from more than one perspective; the impact of compressive sensing; advances in change detection; and challenges and directions for future research.</p><p xmlns="http://ns.editeur.org/onix/3.0/reference"><i>Radar Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) and Non-Cooperative Target Recognition (NCTR)</i> explores both the fundamentals of classification techniques applied to data from a variety of radar modes and selected advanced techniques at the forefront of research, and is essential reading for academic, industrial and military radar researchers, students and engineers worldwide.</p>Mon, 11 Jun 2018 22:45:39 GMThttps://shop.theiet.org:443/radar-auto-targ-recognit
