Abstract :
In his paper he authors propose an innovative two-sage approach for ship detection which is applied to synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images. This technique is based on he join use of a fast coarse wavelet based detector and a Consant False Alarm Rae (CFAR) detector. Real SAR data acquired by the COSMO-SkyMed (CSK) system have been processed o verify he effectiveness of his proposed technique.
