Abstract
In this paper, we performed radar target classification for the five scale models using ultra-wideband measured signal. In order to compare the performance, the 2 GHz(2~4 GHz), 4 GHz(2~6 GHz), and 6 GHz(2~8 GHz) bandwidth were used. Short time Fourier transform(STFT) and continuous wavelet transform(CWT) are used for target feature extraction. Extracted feature vectors are used as input for the multi-layerd perceptron(MLP) neural network classifier. The results show that as the bandwidth is wider, the performance is better.
