Abstract :
The high resolution capabilities of the TLS-Prony method allow for frequency domain analysis of specific mechanisms on a radar target in addition to providing a high resolution time domain response. Although the time domain response is often quite useful, the inherent decomposition of the radar cross section (RCS) data the model provides in the frequency domain allows for the detailed study of individual scattering mechanisms.
