Calculation model of scattering depolarization for camouflaged target detection system

As a new physical model to identify the camouflaged targets in the complex environments, the main effect of the polarization measurement system is the scattering depolarization information of different measured parts. This paper had observed the multiple scattering theory of electromagnetic wave, and analyzed the mechanism of the relation between the depolarization and scattering path. The correctness and accuracy of the theoretical model had been verified by the Fresnel formula. In order to prove the practicability of this model, the experiments on two kinds of camouflage materials had been conducted at seven different angles. Research shows that, as a link between material physical characteristics and optical signal information, the model could accurately and effectively identify the moving camouflaged objects. Therefore, this method has a great application value, and the paper has very important significance on the development of tracking technology.
