The measurement of radar signatures has been extensively discussed in this book so far. Although radar is a very powerful technique for providing high-quality signature data for recognising the target, and is generally more reliable than any other technique for beyond visual range identification, other available information can enhance the performance of the recognition function. This chapter discusses other available data and information, which can support and improve radar target recognition, and methods for combining it with radar signature data for maximising performance.
