Abstract
Ground moving target indication (GMTI) using multiple resolutions of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images to estimate the clutter scattering statistics can help transform Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR), a mission area essential to the U.S. battlefield information advantage, because it can depict vehicular movement of enemy forces in near-real time throughout a large area in all-weather situations including fires, sand storm, and brown out, etc. Significant progress has been made in many aspects of GMTI since 1960s, but many challenges remain. These challenges include sensor development, signal processing, and target-recognition technology. This article describes in GMTI technologies that were developed for both airborne and ground-based surface surveillance.
