In this paper, a new contribution to radar-target identification via extinction-pulse method (E-pulse) is developed. The aim of this work consists in the study of a new type of E-pulses in order to improve their discrimination capability for different noisy conditions. These new E-pulses are built using exponential-splines, which are a new type of base functions that has not been used before. The exponential-splines include by definition some free parameters which can be adjusted, for this reason these are good candidates to improve the discrimination capability respect to other type of E-pulses studied.
