One may describe the effect of a radar or sonar target on an incoming signal as a filter that produces a scattered signal. Chaotic signals are very sensitive to the effect of filters, and so a radar or sonar target imposes a unique signature on a scattered chaotic signal. In this study the authors describe a method that uses the concept of phase space dimension to create a reference from a scattered chaotic signal. This reference becomes part of a library, and comparing an unknown scattered signal to this library can reveal which target caused a particular scattered signal. As the authors are not imaging the target, this method can use signal with low-range resolution.
