An Advanced Data Processing Algorithm for Extraction of Polarimetric Radar Signatures of Moving Automotive Vehicles Using the H/A/α Decomposition Technique

A dedicated signal and data processing chain is proposed for a fully polarimetric Doppler surveillance S-band radar to extract the polarimetric signatures of moving targets. To extract the target’s polarimetric features, detection, clustering, and tracking steps are realized for a multi-target environment in the range-Doppler domain. A dedicated...

Polarimetric Signatures of Moving Automotive Vehicles Based on H/A/α-decomposition: Preliminary Results with PARSAX Radar Data

Polarimetric radar responses from moving automotive targets are studied aiming at target classification using the polarimetric H/A/α-decomposition technique. A signal- and data processing chain has been proposed for the detection and tracking of targets in a multi-target environment in the range-Doppler domain. Polarimetric information of the...
