Abstract

For the small targets detection in single frame infrared image, a spatial filter algorithm based on an adaptive smooth filter and the Robinson Guard spatial filter is proposed in the paper. The algorithm can detect the small targets in the undulant background effectively with little target information loss; it is implemented easily by digital processor ADSP-TS201S with high performance and successfully used in an all directional IRST system. The experiments show the effectiveness of the detection performance.
