Abstract

Detection and tracking of a moving point target in a low signal-to-clutter plus noise environment is studied in this paper. The clutter plus noise background in sequential images are assumed to be spatially correlated. Two-dimensional adaptive correlation canceling technique is employed to suppress the background noise. An effective searching method for target moving path in image sequence is proposed to find the target position by simple computation as possible.
