环境特征与散射特性融合的PolSAR飞机目标检测

针对复杂场景下极化合成孔径雷达(polarimetric synthetic aperture radar, PolSAR)图像飞机目标检测问题,提出了一种融合目标环境特征与散射特性的PolSAR飞机目标检测方法。首先，利用极化白化滤波(polarimetric whitening filter, PWF)图提取疑似飞机目标,将疑似飞机目标转换成超像素得到混合图像。然后，经极化分解与分类构造一个新的环境特征,并与散射特性融合得到飞机目标检测特征,通过阈值判别检测出飞机目标。最后，使用AIRSAR和UAVSAR系统采集的实测数据进行实验,并与其他检测方法进行对比。结果表明,所提方法产生的虚警和漏警较已有方法有所改善,检测结果更好。

Aircraft target detection of PolSAR based on the fusion of environmental feature and scattering characteristics

In order to solve the problem of aircraft target detection by polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) image in complex scene. A PolSAR aircraft target detection method based on the fusion of target environmental feature and scattering characteristics is proposed. Firstly, the polarimetric whitening filter (PWF) map is used to extract the suspected aircraft target which is converted into super-pixels to obtain a mixed image. Then, after polarimetric decomposition and classification, a new environmental feature is constructed and fused with the scattering characteristics to obtain the aircraft target detection feature. Threshold discrimination is used for aircraft target detection. Finally, the testing data collected by the AIRSAR and UAVSAR systems is used for experiments, and compared with other detection methods. The experimental results indicate that the false alarms and missing alarms generated by the proposed method are reduced and the detection results are much better compared with the existing methods.
