Abstract :
In this paper, we outline two parameter estimation schemes for discerning canonical shape parameters from bistatic and monostatic radar data collected over a non-linear flight path. We present initial results characterizing both optimal and sub-optimal estimation performance for location and size estimation of plates, dihedrals, and trihedrals.
