Abstract :
The concept of a novel forward scattering micro-radar wireless network for ground targets detection and recognition is presented. The system topology and structure are described first, followed by a summary of the systempsilas capabilities and applications. Signal processing strategies used for target detection, parameter estimation and automatic target recognition are briefly explained and supported with experimental results.
