Abstract

The analysis of characteristics of marine radar target echo signals, including the area, correlation of the shape complexity and the amplitude of the target echo signal, was conducted by using the recorded radar video signal. Results show that the characteristic parameters of the same target appears strong correlation and stability. Thus these characteristic parameters can be employed to the target detection and tracking algorithms to improve the performances. It can also be used in radar target simulation to make the simulated radar target echo signals looks more close to the real ones.
