Summary The Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) will research advanced processing techniques for the refocus of imagery corresponding to challenging target sets. A primary goal of this research is to determine the assumptions, constraints, and algorithms for generating viable refocused imagery against certain high-priority target sets. This work includes the application of analytic methods of advanced signal and image processing based upon realistic signal measurement models for the sensors of interest. The resulting analytic equations are transformed into prototype engineering code, such as Matlab. Various resulting algorithms are applied to relevant simulated and measured image data sets in order to determine reliable and robust methods for refocusing the imagery corresponding to such challenging target sets. This work effort offers to develop a capability for reliable and efficient processing algorithms for generating refocused imagery corresponding to particular challenging target sets.
