Abstract

The article focuses on different approaches for different radar types of radar target recognition. Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) provides high resolutions for both range and azimuth directions and has been used widely for target recognition applications. Since SAR is an imaging radar, it can provide detailed images of target areas with cloud-penetrating characteristics. When its fully polarimetric data are utilized, targets can be recognized with high accuracy. The SAR target recognition is typically done in multiple stages. The first stage of a typical SAR target recognition algorithm is a prescreener, where regions of interest are located.
