Abstract

We investigate the problem of jointly classifying and identifying multiple targets in radar sensor networks where the maximum number of categories and the maximum number of targets in each category are obtained a priori based on statistical data. However, the actual number of targets in each category and the actual number of target categories being present at any given time are assumed unknown. It is assumed that a given target only belongs to one category and one identification number. The target signals are moreover modeled as zero-mean complex Gaussian processes. In this paper, we propose a joint multi-target identification and classification (JMIC) algorithm for radar surveillance using the cognitive radar network. The existing target categories are first classified and then the targets in each category are accordingly identified. Simulation results are presented to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed JMIC algorithm in a query surveillance region.
