Abstract :
This study consists on the exploitation of enhanced target detection and efficient discrimination techniques utilizing novel experimental techniques, based on single-pixel polarimetric detection. The experimental results of this study indicate that enhanced target detection and discrimination can be obtained, in a variety of scenarios, by utilizing advanced single-detection polarimetric techniques combined with ultra-low noise detection techniques.
