This article highlights limits and constraints of both ground-based radars (GBRs) and spaceborne radars (SBRs) to support space situational awareness (SSA). It appears wise to frame this problem adopting an ontological perspective on the environmental scenario providing a structured representation of concepts and relations. A ontology for spaceborne radar debris detection and tracking: channel-target phenomenology and motion models is also proposed. Beside detection and tracking schemes for SSA, these target models are also applicable to support time series analysis on RCS signatures using fully polarimetric radars.

Abstract
This article highlights limits and constraints of both ground-based radars (GBRs) and spaceborne radars (SBRs) to support space situational awareness (SSA). It appears wise to frame this problem adopting an ontological perspective on the environmental scenario providing a structured representation of concepts and relations. A ontology for spaceborne radar debris detection and tracking: channel-target phenomenology and motion models is also proposed. Beside detection and tracking schemes for SSA, these target models are also applicable to support time series analysis on RCS signatures using fully polarimetric radars.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
