An improved method for high-resolution polarization target detection

The problem of detecting targets in the cluttered circumstance with wide-band high-resolution radar is studied. A way of improving SCR(Signal-to-Clutter-Ratio) is cited by linear integration filtering in polarization domain. With the intrinsic high resolution of wide-band waveform, one-dimension range profile of radar target can be obtained. In connection with the fact that the values of Stokes vector and polarization attitude of target greatly differ from which of cluttered circumstance, a new target detection method is presented. Simulation experimental results show that radars detection performance can be improved significantly by using the algorithm presented in this paper.
