Abstract

This paper focuses on a passive radar system based on Global Navigation Satellite Systems for maritime surveillance. While in the past the capability of this technology to detect ship targets at sea was proved, despite the low EIRP level of the GNSS, the objective of this paper is investigating the potential of the system to extract information concerning the detected target characteristics. An experimental study is here provided, showing that the Doppler gradient observed for ship targets of interest can be exploited making use of ISAR approaches for extracting ship features to be exploited in target recognition procedures.
