Spectropolarizational technique for detection of manmade objects in visible and near infrared spectral ranges

摘要

The polarization state of radiation contains supplementary information which is distinctive from that given by the intensity. Despite great progress in polarization image registration instrumentation we can not assert that there are effective methods of polarization image processing, which allow to construct well operating algorithms of object recognition for various observation conditions. The basis of our technique consists of the existing differences in spectropolarization reflection of artificial object surfaces and surrounding backgrounds at natural luminescence.
