Abstract
In this paper, a novel moving target detection method for sequential Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images with different azimuth-squint angles is proposed. In sequential SAR images, due to the movement of the target, the imaging position of moving targets among different frames differs. The method proposed in this paper uses this kind of motion characteristics to achieve the detection of moving targets in multi-frame SAR images. This algorithm can be divided into two parts: block-level detection and pixel-level detection. Block-level detection is achieved by stacked denoising autoencoders to extract the high-dimensional features of the moving target. Pixel-level detection consists of Local Binary Similarity Patterns (LBSP) coding as well as grayscale background subtraction. Pixel-level detection only needs to consider the pixels of foreground image pieces which contain moving targets. This method can not only increase the detection speed, but also suppress the false alarm problem caused by clutter. Experiments are carried out for verifying the validation of the method and the comparison are made between the proposed method and the traditional Constant False Alarm Rate (CFAR) algorithm.
