An Combination Processing by Imaging Method for the Underwater Moving Target Detection.

Automatic detection for the underwater intruders is an important topic for the underwater surveillance system. At present, the multistatic mode has been newly used for the small moving targets detection. This paper introduces the new Monostatic-Bistatic Composite system designed for the port of HuangPu River. The data fusion for the monostatic and bistatic was described using the combination processing of imaging method, and the calibration algorithm of this system was discussed. At last the experiment of this Composite system for small underwater vehicle was given. The experiment result shows the observability of the small target in bistatic modes and the better performance of this imaging method used in the composite system. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
