Abstract :
Based on the Kennaugh-Huynen decomposition, the Target Scattering Vector Model (TSVM) allows to extract four roll-invariant parameters. Those parameters are necessary for an unambiguous description of the target scattering mechanism. The proposed method consists in applying the TSVM prior to the GLRT-LQ detector for the detection of any oriented target.
