Aircraft Target Identification by Null Polarization Based Feature Set
Faisal Aldhubaib
Abstract: The paper utilizes a small feature set formed by the polarization nulls of the targets resonances to identify airborne model targets. Once linked to the target resonances, the small feature set can reflect shape attributes like the elongation, symmetry, and tilt degrees in the individual target substructures. Based on a 3D feature space formed by these three degrees, the identification approach applies Euclidean distance measure to identify two electrically similar targets of similar resonance behavior. The identification performance indicated that the feature set is robust, and in particular, the elongation feature demonstrated superior discriminative ability.
