Abstract :
A method called fixed focus shadow enhancement is proposed. The purpose is to sharpen target shadows in synthetic aperture radar images. The method applies a fixed focus range to a given target, resulting in a sharp target image and a sharp target shadow. Other parts of the radar image, including the background against which the shadow is seen, are smeared
