Abstract
The ability of interferoceiver to reveal micro Doppler signatures from a single radar pulse opens a new era in automatic target recognition. The present paper considers a real scenario to illustrate the power of such ability. In July 3, 1988, a United States Navy battleship in the Persian Gulf shot down an Iranian passenger plane Flight 655. The Navy said they mistook it for a jet fighter. The incident killed all 290 people on board the passenger plane. This is a case of misidentification, which could be avoided with the help of interferoceiver.
