On the Statistical Modeling of Radar Targets
Abstract
Wright,James W. ;Haddad,Abraham H. ;RE-TR-72-19(*radar targets, electromagnetic pulses), (*radar tracking, radar cross sections), scattering, errors, noise, doppler effect, gain, probability density functions, partial differential equations, flight paths, mathematical models electromagnetic scatteringThe objective of this research is to develop techniques and procedures for computing the statistical characteristics of some electromagnetic scattering phenomena from radar targets. Radar measurements are perturbed by electromagnetic scattering phenomena induced by complex targets including radar cross section scintillation and glint or position error. The statistical characteristics of these phenomena may be used to evaluate radar system performance, develop optimum tracking systems, and develop stochastic models to use in system simulations.
