Syntactic target classifier
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A tangible computer-readable medium encoded with a target classifying computer program, wherein execution of said computer program by one or more processors causes said one or more processors to perform the steps of:
- a) receiving a received signal from an imaging device, said received signal containing relative spatial information locating impedance discontinuities;
b) processing said received signal to generate at least one spatial sequence characteristic of said relative spatial information; and
c) associating at least one of said at least one spatial sequence with a target when said at least one spatial sequence matches within a predetermined limit of at least one representation of a second spatial sequence, said second spatial sequence indicative of at least one physical characteristic of said target.

Abstract
Disclosed is a Syntactic Landmine Detector. The syntactic landmine detector processes a received signal from a ground penetrating RADAR which contains at least one spatial sequence, the spatial sequence containing relative spatial information locating impedance discontinuities. The spatial sequence is then associated with at least one physical characteristic of a landmine.

13. A target classifier, comprising:
-
a) a receiver, said receiver configured to receive a received signal from an imaging device, said received signal containing relative spatial information locating impedance discontinuities; and
b) a signal processor configured to generate at least one spatial sequence characteristic of said relative spatial information by signal processing said received signal; and
c) a sequence detector configured to associate at least one of said at least one spatial sequence with a target when said at least one spatial sequence matches within a predetermined limit of at least one representation of a second spatial sequence, said second spatial sequence indicative of at least one physical characteristic of said target. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)
