Pose Estimation for SAR ATR Based on Directional Wavelet Transform

A pose estimation method for SAR ATR based on directional wavelet transform is proposed in this paper.First,the target feature is analyzed after segmenting a target from background clutter.Then,the angular-wavelet energy spectrum is derived to estimate pose of targets.Experimental results based on MSTAR datasets show that this approach can extract the pose information of SAR target better and the estimation accuracy is satisfactory.
