Abstract :
In this paper, target´s polarization invariables are investigated in the wide-band case in optics region. On this basis, airborne target polarization features are extracted with respect to depolarization coefficient. Recognition results on five kinds of aircraft show that these features are insensitive to target´s posture to a great extent and this method based on polarization invariables is effective and feasible
