Optimization of Polarimetric Contrast Enhancement (OPCE) Ioannidis Hammers Kostinski Boerner Yamaguchi Yang
Problem • Can we employ the OPCE for ship detection? • It is easy to get the average Kennaugh matrix of sea clutter, but how can we get or construct the average Kennaugh matrix of ships? • Can we extend the OPCE for ship detection?
Approximate expression From the least square method and Vieta's Theorem The average error:
The Formula has a good approximation to the theoretical value of the polarization entropy Eigenvalues and logarithm are unnecessary!!! Running Time by the proposed formula is only 5% of that by the traditional approach J. Yang, Y. Chen, Y. Peng, Y. Yamaguchi, H. Yamada, “New formula of the polarization entropy”, IEICE Trans. Commun., 2006, E89-B(3), 1033-1035

GOPCE based ship detection For a sea area subject to:
Average Kennaugh matrix of ships • the scattering contributions of a ship • direct reflection of plates • double reflections of diplates of the ship • some multi-reflections of the surface of the ship, or some multi-reflections between the ship and the sea surface
