Comparison of active microwave and optical sensors

This paper describes a number of projects at TNO-FEL in the field of sensor fusion of radar and electrooptical sensors. These fusion approaches consider land, air, and maritime scenarios for surveillance and autonomous detection tasks. Fusion benefits are present when uncorrelated and complementary sensor data is present. Data from different sensors is compared in the land scenario. A qualitative description of the use of different sensor combinations in unmanned aerial vehicles is given, and for maritime scenarios such as anti air warfare some fusion system approaches for the surveillance task are given
