This data-set contains signals from scaled replicas of ballistic targets with micro-motions acquired in a controlled indoor environment with a 24GHz CW radar.

2 types of target: WARHEAD and DECOY

Micro-Motions
WARHEAD: PRECESSION (SPINNING and CONICAL ROTATION) and NUTATION
DECOY: WOBBLING

The micro motions are simulated by Robotic manipulator ST R17 and added rotor (from helicopter scale model) attached to the robotic arm end-factor.

The acquisitions from targets have been made for different value of Azimuth and Elevation angle (considering the Line Of Sight between radar and target and the symmetric axis of target).

The format of the files is Wave Sound (.wav) with two audio channels ( in phase/quadrature) which can be easily processed by Matlab.
