Within this chapter the main radar recognition techniques for various types of targets have been discussed. In each case, if the radar has the scheduling time available and the hardware is installed, polarisation measurements can also be made. This is particularly true for the high-range resolution measurements. The target recognition techniques are summarised in Tables 11.1-11.4 for the different classes of target for radars installed on ground, naval and airborne platforms.
