Model-based RF ground moving target signature synthesis and analysis tool

Describes a model-based moving target signature synthesis and analysis tool that leverages and integrates separate simulations for scenario generation, signature prediction, and moving target video phase history (VPH) synthesis with platform, sensor and target modeling. The integration provides a high-fidelity simulation that features computer-aided design (CAD) target models, electromagnetic scattering prediction codes, arbitrary target/sensor imaging geometries, aerospace sensor and platform modeling, and the specification of entity dynamics including interaction with terrain and road network data. The tool is ideal for generating moving target scenarios and data for the development and performance evaluation of radar-based automated ground target tracking and classification algorithms.
