Scattering Computations as a Simulation Tool for Automatic Target Recognition and Processing

Abstract

This research aims at improving most steps involved in the ATD/R process. This program is integrating the signal processing approach with analytic numerical analysis (used as a tool for the modeling of physical phenomena) to obtain clear and efficient definitions of target and clutter features. The goal of the project is to enhance all aspects of processing, modeling and simulation of target recognition and detection. Our effort can be roughly subdivided into two parts: signal processing techniques, and methods for the numerical simulation of scattering phenomena. Following is a discussion of our work in these two directions of research.
