Abstract
This paper focuses on an emergency situation in which a network of ultra-wide-band (UWB) sensor nodes mounted on moveable platforms is moving in a room for purposes of recognition of objects. The recognition is accomplished between 2D canonical objects, which are scanned by UWB radar and a set of reference objects with same size which were analyzed by a ray-tracing method. The object recognition task is performed on the basis of RCS (radar cross section) measurements leading to corresponding radar-gram data. Here the objects characteristic geometric features are examined by using polar Fourier descriptors which are extended in a way that also provides for multiple reflections.
