Description

Vehicle detection method based on polarized synthetic aperture radar
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of radar image signal processing, in particular to a vehicle detection method based on a polarization synthetic aperture radar.
Background
With the rapid development of economy, the number of private cars in cities is increasing, traffic jam and environmental pollution are caused, and the pressure can be relieved through intelligent regulation and control of vehicles.
Target detection is a key and difficult problem of polar Synthetic Aperture Radar (polar SAR), and is also an important application direction of the polar SAR system. The echo received by the polarized SAR has four basic characteristics of amplitude, phase, frequency and polarization, and can completely describe a target physical scattering process. Different targets have different backscattering strength, dielectric property and geometric property, so that different polarization properties can be shown in a polarized SAR image after the incident electromagnetic waves are subjected to information modulation and loading by the targets, and the basis for realizing detection of different targets is realized.
Because the polarized SAR data contains time domain, frequency domain, time frequency domain and polarization information with rich targets, more resources can be provided for realizing stable target detection, and the method has wide application in many civil and military fields. Generally, conventional target detection methods based on polarized SAR images can be classified into the following three categories:
1) target detection algorithm based on polarization characteristics
The polarized SAR image contains rich polarized scattering features of the target, such as polarized entropy, polarized scattering total power (Span), characteristic value, polarization degree, cross entropy and the like, so many scholars propose many target detection algorithms based on the polarized scattering features. Touzi et al analyzed The performance of ship detection based on polarization information at different incident angles using The polarized SAR data recorded by SAR-580, and The contrast between The ship target and The sea was significantly improved when The incident angle was below 60 °, thereby improving The performance of ship detection (Touzi R. calibrated polar SAR data for shift detection [ C ]// IGARSS 2000.IEEE 2000International geographic and motion Sensing Systemum. labeling The Pulse of The ship: The roll of motion Sensing in manufacturing The environment. proceedings. IEEE 2000,1: 144-146.). Fan et al propose a cross entropy based target detection algorithm, which first uses cross entropy to segment sea and land, extracts the region containing the target of interest, and then uses similarity and Span value to eliminate false target, thereby realizing ship target detection (Fan L, Yang J, Pen Y N.A cross-based parameter for ship detection from a polar SAR image [ C ]//2005IEEE International Symposium on Microwave, Antenna, Propagation and EMC Technologies for Wireless communications.IEEE,2005,1: 6-9.).
2) Target detection algorithm based on constant false alarm rate
Constant False Alarm Rate (CFAR) has been widely applied to target detection of SAR images due to its simple and efficient characteristics, and many scholars also propose many target detection algorithms based on CFAR in combination with the polarization characteristics of polarized SAR. Wu et al designs a CFAR-based ship algorithm by using a polarized feature vector such as Span, feature value and anisotropy, and verifies the performance of the algorithm on RADARSAR-2 measured data (Bingjie W, Chao W, Bo Z, et al. Shield detection based on Radarsat-2full-polar images [ C ]// Proceedings of 2011IEEE CIE International Conference on radio, IEEE,2011,1: 634-. However, the traditional statistical model of the background clutter cannot accurately represent the statistical characteristics of the background clutter under many conditions, and thus the performance of the target detection algorithm is reduced. Therefore, many scholars propose improved algorithms such as two-parameter CFAR, order statistic CFAR, mean CFAR and CFAR based on gray scale correlation, but the detection effect is improved to a limited extent. For polarized SAR image data in a plurality of complex scenes, such as urban complex ground target detection tasks, the CFAR algorithm based on the statistical model still has the problems of high detection result omission ratio and false alarm rate caused by inaccurate clutter representation model in target detection.
3) Target detection algorithm based on polarization statistical distribution
Many researchers have conducted research work on statistical distribution modeling and model parameter estimation for polarized SAR image data. Song et al proposed a variational Bayesian-based target detection algorithm using the complex covariance matrix of polarized SAR and obeying to multivariate Gaussian distribution, and achieved a good effect on the data set of RADASARSET-2 (Song S, Xu B, Yang J.Ship detection in polar SAR images using targets' sparse property [ C ]//2016IEEE International geographic science and motion Sensing Symposium (IGARSS). IEEE,2016: 5706-. We et al assume that the covariance matrix of the results of polarized SAR imaging obeys complex Wishart distribution, propose an objective Detection algorithm Using Wishart distance and polarized Span information, and verify the validity of the algorithm on the AIRSAR dataset (Wei J, Li P, Yang J, et al. A New Automatic Shield Detection Method Using L-Band polar SAR imaging [ J ]. IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth observation and removal Sensing,2013,7(4): 1383-. Ding et al propose a CFAR ship target detection algorithm based on truncated Gamma distribution in order to suppress the influence of strong sea clutter and other artificial targets on ship target detection, model the statistical characteristics of the sea clutter background by a classification method and estimate model parameters, then detect the ship by using the CFAR detection algorithm, and verify the validity of the algorithm on the RADARSET-2 data set (Tao D, Doulgeris A P, Brekke C.A segmentation-based CFAR detection algorithm used on the specified statistics [ J ]. IEEE Transactions on diagnostics and removal Sensing,2016,54(5): 2887-.
Many of the methods described above require accurate acquisition of the polarization scatter information, characterization models, and statistical properties of the clutter. Under a simple uniform clutter background, such as sea surface ship detection, the ground object type is single, and information estimated by using the background clutter conforms to the actual condition; for artificial target detection in complex polarization SAR scenes including a large number of ground object types, such as cities, because clutter edges and interference caused by multiple targets, information estimated by utilizing clutter often does not conform to reality, and the practicability of many methods is greatly reduced. Therefore, most of the existing algorithms are directed at sea surface target detection tasks, and few detection researches on ground targets are carried out, especially the problem of intensive target detection in complex environments.

In this embodiment, the importance degree is represented by a complex Wishart distance and a correlation coefficient, where the smaller the complex Wishart distance is, the larger the correlation coefficient is, the more similar it is to the vehicle target.
In this embodiment, the coordinate of Z is taken as the upper left corner of the rectangular frame, and a unique rectangular frame, that is, the rectangular frame of the vehicle, can be obtained according to the width and height of the sliding window.
In this embodiment, in order to obtain an accurate detection result, it is further necessary to remove isolated points, if the number n of rectangular frames to be merged of the suspected target is very small, the suspected target may be noise in a background with a shape close to a real target, such as a building strong reflector or a ground strong reflector, at this time, the final screening should be performed through the number of merged frames, specifically, a threshold P is set, and when n is smaller than P, the suspected target is considered as a false target and discarded, otherwise, the false target is left.
