Abstract

An information theoretic method for testing and/or validating the suitability of a multi-radar signature database to be used on radar systems having automatic target recognition. The database may include measured data and/or modeled synthetic data. The technique allows measured data to be compared to the synthetic data using modal mutual information. The present invention further includes an information theoretic method for real time calculation of automatic target recognition using modal mutual information calculation.
