  • Abstract
    Some schemes for detecting moving point targets against structured backgrounds from observations on the output of an imaging system are investigated. When the velocity of the target and the background image are considered as known, it is shown that the uniformly most powerful detector, invariant with respect to image intensity variations, consists of specific spatial-temporal differencing schemes. This places such schemes on a rigorous foundation.
