Non-cooperative Identification Subsystems
Abstract
Non-cooperative Combat Identification (CID) employs a number of sensing technologies and signal processing techniques. The observations may be compared to a database of known objects to identify surface or air threats from air platforms. These technologies include: (1) Laser Vision, an electro-optical/infrared (EO/IR) imaging system that significantly increases identification ranges and includes exploiting synergies between non-cooperative and cooperative ID systems (radio, millimeter wave, infrared, and laser); (2) Radar Vision, an air-to-ground radar imaging technique to identify stationary and moving targets using their radar signatures; including passive techniques and electronic warfare identification technologies; (3) Hydra Vision, a balanced (robust) amalgamation of sensor data from multiple sources to provide warfighters with higher confidence CID results on surface or air targets potentially including fusion with intelligence sources, identification of non-traditional targets, fusion to counter camouflage, concealment and deception (CCD), and multi-phenomenology features for sustainable databases; (4) Compact ATR (Aided Target Recognition) and Sustainable Environments (CASE), a CID approach that focuses on tailoring algorithms to utilize smaller, more efficient databases that are faster and less expensive to generate and maintain; and (5) X-Patch, a validated set of prediction codes and analysis tools that predicts realistic far-field radar signatures from 3-D (3 dimensional) target models in order to predict 1D and/or 2D data. X-Patch is vital for development of radar signatures of potential high-threat weapons systems; it is a critical capability of database production centers which support Joint Sensors Signature Database (JSSD) pathfinders. Activities also include studies and analysis to support both current program planning and execution and future program planning.
