Abstract

The paper will deal with the problem of tracking a Ballistic Target (BT) with a multifunctional radar phased array radar. It is assumed that the radar acquires a limited number of measurements that do not encompass the whole target trajectory; thus the established target track has to be extrapolated ahead in time in order to predict, as an example, the coordinates of the impact point. A further function is the support to threat classification which allows to adopt the proper reaction to the target under tracking.
