Statistical Modeling of PMA Detector for Ship Detection in High-Resolution Dual-Polarization SAR Images
The product of multilook amplitudes (PMA) detector has been used to detect ships in high-resolution dual-polarization synthetic-aperture-radar images. However, the adaptive constant false-alarm rate (CFAR) technique of the PMA detector is desirable for practical applications, wherein a crucial problem is to find an appropriate model to describe the PMA statistics for varied sea surfaces. First, we consider a new probability density function to characterize the PMA statistics of homogeneous sea surfaces. Second, by using the new density and multiplicative model, the PMA detector's statistical model for nonhomogeneous sea surfaces is specified and demonstrated to be the \mathcal{G}^{0} distribution. Then, a theoretical analysis of the relationship between the performance of the standard CFAR detection and the parameters in the \mathcal{G}^{0} distribution is conducted. Experiments performed on the measured RADARSAT-2 and NASA/JPL AIRSAR images verify the effectiveness and appropriateness of the \mathcal{G}^{0} model for describing the statistical behavior of the PMA of sea clutter, as well as the usefulness of the model for practical ship-detection applications.
