Feature Extraction of Attributed Scattering Centers on High Resolution SAR Imagery
The attributed scattering center model is based on the solutions to both physical optics and the geometric theory of infraction. The model provides the characteristic feature of attributed scattering centers which can be well used in the target recognition. In order to get the feature on high resolution SAR Imagery
the attributed scattering center model is discussed and the method of extracting the feature of attributed scattering centers from a high resolution SAR image is researched in this paper. It is a parameter estimation method based on a SAR imagery. The method includes four steps: image segmentation
the selection of the model type
the estimate of initial value and the parameter optimization. The seven parameters of each scattering center can be obtained through above four steps. After the recurrence procession
the parameters of all the scattering centers in the imagery can be attained. At last
the validity and accuracy of this method can be demonstrated by the results of simulation.
