Trace extraction of moving point targets in complex background images
This paper investigated the working scheme of a spaceborn signal processor applied to the USA Midcourse Space Experiment (MSX) for target detection and tracking. The moving target indicator in the MSX performed the trace extraction in two stages
namely
"nominator-confirmer" procedure. the first stage used a binary matched filter to "nominate" streak paths which looked like they might actually contain signals and the second one did a energy accumulation decision to "confirm" the nomination of the first stage. Based on the study of above procedure
an improved method was proposed to detect moving targets. In "nominator" stage
the velocity restraint condition was introduced to binary matched filter for reducing the probability of false alarm. In "confirmer" stage
the criteria of "minimum sample mean difference" were added to that of "maximum sample mean" for improving the probability of detection. The improved method could be widely used in complex background images. Finally
an experimental method was designed to analyze the algorithm performance of two different methods. The experimental results show that the number of streak paths filtered by improved method is lower than 50% compared with that former method
and number of clock cycles is reduced from 8.0?10
6
to 7.1?10
6
. Improved method can effectively detect multi-moving targets in real time by expanding the reasonable range of threshold to nearly 20.
