Abstract

Inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) image registration enables the analysis of target dynamics by comparing registered images from different viewpoints. However, it faces significant challenges due to various factors, such as the complex scattering characteristics of the target, limited availability of information, and additive noise in ISAR images. This paper proposes a novel ISAR image registration method based on line features. It integrates information from both dominant scatterers and the target’s outer contour to detect lines. According to the consistency principles of multiple lines in rotation and translation, line features from different ISAR images are matched. Simultaneously, the results of the feature matching are utilized to guide the parameter configuration for optimizing the image registration process. Comparative experiments illustrate the advantages of the proposed method in both feature extraction and registration feasibility.
