Abstract
This paper examines the combination of adaptive signal design and orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) pulses in order to improve their detection performance and automatic target recognition for multiple varieties of single target scenarios. This adaptive design will be performed through exploiting the target’s reflectivity function. OFDM’s performance for radar systems is discussed and analyzed, as well as its potential in adaptive design. The place of adaptive signal design in developing radar systems is examined, and methods are detailed. Estimators for determining the target’s reflectivity function (TRF) are derived and implemented. Finally, performance results for TRF identification and automatic target recognition are discussed.
