description | The traditional constant false alarm rate (CFAR) method, with fixed parameter settings and single noise background calculation, is unable to intelligently catch the current detection background. To improve the performance of the CFAR method, this paper proposes a target detection method based on decision tree classification (DTC) for high-frequency surface wave radar (HFSWR). Firstly, the training sample set and labels are obtained by means of a ship automatic identification system (AIS). Then, feature vector of range dimension, Doppler dimension and range-Doppler (RD) dimension is extracted by way of cell averaging, ordered statistics, censored mean and trimmed mean. Finally, DTC is used to recognize “true” and “false” targets in feature space. Experimental results show that, under the same number of detection targets, the DTC method is superior to traditional CFAR methods, and the accuracy of target detection can be increased by more than 5%. |
