Description

Satellite-borne moving target detection and speed estimation method
Technical Field

Background
The process is that in the process of continuously shooting the ground by a satellite-borne camera, a plurality of frames of continuous images are used for completing the extraction of the interested moving target, the corresponding position and the corresponding movement speed and direction of the target are calculated, then the calculation result is used for carrying out long-time tracking shooting on the target, the analysis of the target is completed, the target information is reported to the ground in time, and the effect of quickly detecting and tracking is achieved.
Due to the fact that the imaging distance is long, the area of the target on the image is from a few to more than ten pixels, the interior of the target has no texture features, the exterior shape information is less, the influence of the background and noise on the target is large, the signal-to-noise ratio of the target is generally low, and the false alarm rate of the algorithm is generally high. The algorithm generally preprocesses a single-frame image to improve the signal-to-noise ratio of a suspicious target, and then performs threshold segmentation on the image and extracts a connected domain; and then, the moving target is detected by using the processing result of the multi-frame image.
The traditional moving target processing algorithm is designed under ideal conditions, the motion of a satellite and the change of the camera attitude are ignored, multi-frame matching of phase-plane coordinates is directly carried out on a preprocessed image, and the method cannot be applied to a real satellite-borne environment. Meanwhile, most methods such as bilateral filtering, wavelet transformation and other algorithms have large calculation amount and cannot perform on-orbit real-time calculation.
Because the phase surface coordinates are directly used for multi-frame target detection, the traditional method has inaccurate setting of the speed and the speed direction threshold value: most methods directly use the displacement of the same connected domain among multiple frames on the phase plane to complete the estimation of the speed and use the displacement direction vector to complete the estimation of the speed direction.
