Abstract

In the high-resolution and polarimetric case, the concept of PFS (polarization frequency stability) is presented. A Poincare sphere is used as the representation of polarization. The concept of PSD (polarization states distance) is presented to describe target dynamic polarization characteristic. On this basis polarization features are extracted and recognition results show that the method based on the description of target PFS is effective in optics region in the high-resolution case
