Abstract :
Researches on target detection are mainly focus on the amplitude characteristics nowadays. Sometimes the only use of amplitude characteristics is not enough to describe the signal, so that the target detection performance is usually poor. In this essay a method to make use of the information “hidden” in the signal phase is put forward, the theory is based on polynomial fitting of the signal phase train structure. At last, the method is validated using actual data.
