Adaptive RF Sensing

We have sought to either identify or create methods different from state of the art for solving the BMDO problem of providing an ultrahigh resolution active sensorradar which can identify missile from decoy. We advocate sensorradar systems using pulses shorter than the length of the target, adaptive time frequency analysis methods which preserve target backscattering centers and resonances, and pattern identification of target and decoy. In particular, we have created 1 extensions of the Gabor transform CQOW, 2 adaptive methods, 3 methods involving the instantaneous phase, 4 mutual information methods, 5 Zak transform methods, which can achieve preserve target backscattering and target resonance and provide the input for procedures permitting pattern identification of target and decoy. Furthermore, we have created methods using 1 the bootstrap fractal dimension, 2 Fano number, 3 deterministic chaos methodologies, to provide precision is identification of target and decoy. Our recommendation for the next step to be taken is to implement these new methods in emulation or real time systems.
