Abstract
A signal processing technique is introduced in this paper in order to estimate the lengths of missile targets. To measure the length of a target, it is necessary to know the information on the target's location and aspect angle. Chirp waveforms and stretch processing are used to estimate the location and angle of a missile as well as HRRP(High Resolution Range Profile). RELAX(relaxation) algorithm, which is one of the spectral estimation techniques, were used to find scattering centers of a missile from HRRP. From the information on the distribution of one-dimensional(1-D) scattering centers on a target, we can discriminate the length of a missile.
