We present an analysis of the capability for imageless ground scene classification using a subset of the Fourier domain information obtained with a rotationally dynamic millimeter-wave antenna array. The concept is based on the detection of signal artifacts generated by artificial objects in a scene, which manifests in the Fourier, or spatial frequency, domain. Man-made, artificial structures, such as buildings and roads, are generally characterized by sharp edges, which generate spatial frequency responses that are confined to a narrow angular range but extend over a broad spatial frequency bandwidth. These artifacts can be detected by generating a ring-shaped filter in the Fourier domain, which can be obtained through the novel design of a linear antenna array with rotational dynamics. We discuss the design of a millimeter-wave linear dynamic array for generating ring-filters and analyze the ability of such an array to classify ground scenes containing artificial structures from those without when mounted on an aerial platform, such as a drone. We compare ring filter designs and explore the use of a heuristic classifier and the K-nearest neighbor (K-NN) classifier on a large dataset of microwave ground scenes obtained from a database. Using a single ring filter that can be implemented with a two-element antenna array, small classification errors of 0.6%–3.2% were observed. Implementing multiple filters in a linear array consisting of four elements reduced the error to 0.3%.
