Even in the most sophisticated recognition system, if an object does not want to cooperate, especially if that object is hostile, the system may have significant problems with detecting and identifying said object. This is just one of the challenges facing those who deal with radar target recognition processes. Practitioner Tait covers the key techniques being developed for operational systems, including those considered for space war, while keeping the steep learning curve in mind. He introduces the basic principals of radar systems with a tutorial, then describes high-resolution range profiles, high cross-range resolution techniques, frequency and time domain analysis, other high-resolution techniques, system issues, component implications, antenna design, operational issues, applications for aircraft to ships and air breathing missiles, the target recognition process, the art of combining radar signatures and other data, and future innovations and challenges.
