We present an automated technique to extract the three-dimensional scattering-center model of a target from its geometrical CAD model. The technique is based on the shooting and bouncing ray (SBR) method. In this article, we first review the basic concepts behind the three-dimensional scattering-center-extraction algorithm. Next, we present application examples of signature-data compression and radar-feature extraction, based on the scattering centers extracted from complex targets using such a methodology. We conclude by identifying some future areas of research.
