Node location for netted radar target classification

In this paper, a survey of the benefits of radar target classification performance provided by multiple sensing perspectives is presented. Two and three-perspective classification performance as a function of the angular displacement between the perspectives are presented. Results indicate a considerable improvement in performance when compared with the more usual monostatic radar approach to target classification. Additionally, it is important to recognise that there is a dependence on the target's geometrical symmetries as well as the particular topology of the network.
