Abstract

The direct evidence of radar target recognition is the backscatter energy and its distribution of objects, which is concluded by the imaging process of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) in a two-dimension image domain. Thus, the issues about automatic target recognition of SAR are often a post-process following SAR imaging. A method of target detection in the state of non-imaging based on analyzing the features of all kinds of targets on SAR echo data is presented in this paper, where the targets are defected in range-Doppler domain (RDD). Based on the analysis of target features in RDD, an algorithm of target detection in a RDD image is developed. The experimental results indicate the validity of the algorithm for special kinds of target detection. The algorithm is simple, able to recurrent, easy for real-time processing and hardware implementation. It can also be applied to getting target alarm with real-time SAR data for the pre-selected targets and do the imaging process selectively at the same time.
