Identification of urban road targets using radar systems is usually heavily dependent on the aspect angle between the target velocity and line of sight of the radar. To improve the performance of the classification result when the target is in a cross range position relative to the radar, a method based on range micro Doppler signature is proposed in this paper. Joint time-frequency analysis is applied in every range cell to extract the time Doppler signature. The spectrograms from all of the target range cells are combined to form the range micro Doppler signature to allow further identification. Experiments were conducted to investigate the performance of the proposed method, and the results proved the effectiveness of the method presented.
