✦ Synopsis
This paper demonstrates the feasibility and ad¨antages of ( ) using a self-organizing map SOM -type neural network classifier for electromagnetic target recognition. The classifier is supported by a no¨el ( ) feature extraction unit in which the Wigner distribution WD , a time᎐ frequency representation, is utilized for the extraction of naturalresonance-related energy feature ¨ectors from scattered fields. The proposed target classification technique is tested for a set of canonical targets, displaying an excellent performance in terms of both real-time classification speed and accuracy, e¨en in the presence of noisy data.
