Experimental study on detecting deformed man-made objects based on eigenvalue/eigenvector analysis

Abstract

In this paper, the results of polarimetric scattering measurement is presented to verify the efficiency of proposed man-made object detection algorithm. The polarimetric angular indices α and β are known to be effective for identification of well-regulated structures. However, the validity for detecting deformed structures is not clear. So the feature of α and β for the squint angle variation of deformed man-made objects was investigated in detail.
