Description
Summary:This paper introduces an effective detector for wavelength-resolution SAR incoherent change detection. The detector is derived from Bayes' theorem. The input of the detector is the differences between surveillance and reference magnitude images simply obtained by a subtraction while the output is a summary of the detected changes. The proposed detector is tested with 24 CARABAS images that were obtained from the measurement campaign in northern Sweden in 2002. The testing results show that the detector can provide a high average detection probability, e.g., about 96%, with a very low false alarm rate, e.g., only 0.35 per square kilometer. © 2019 IEEE.
